Weekend watchlist alert! 📺 “UNTAPPED: Closing America's Opportunity Gap” is now available on Netflix. “UNTAPPED” sheds light on the hard work and dedication of Year Up United graduates as they navigate gaining the skills they need to launch their careers. Produced by Workday and LeBron James and Maverick Carter’s The SpringHill Company, and directed by award-winning filmmaker Josh Kahn, the documentary captures powerful stories of resilience and success, and the value of skills-based hiring. In the U.S. alone, 70+ million workers are STARs: professionals Skilled Through Alternative Routes, rather than a bachelor’s degree program. They represent over half the country’s skilled workforce and are already using their skills, ingenuity, and determination to tear through the paper ceiling. In the documentary, you’ll hear from skills-first champions — including entrepreneur Mark Cuban, General Motors CEO Mary Barra, JPMorganChase CEO Jamie Dimon, Walmart CEO Doug McMillon, Year Up United Founder Gerald Chertavian, Opportunity@Work CEO and Co-Founder Byron Auguste, and Workday Founder and Executive Chair Aneel Bhusri and CEO Carl Eschenbach — on why supporting talent from nontraditional pathways isn’t just the right thing to do, but good for business, too. Talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. LinkedIn is proud to join so many organizations spreading the message to “Tear the Paper Ceiling.” 🎬 Get ready to be inspired: https://lnkd.in/eEVPhUht #UNTAPPEDFilm
