The 2023 CW Program Game Changers list honors professionals around the world who are taking contingent workforce management to the next level. The workforce ecosystem has evolved. This year’s Game Changers have evolved, too, embracing new technology, committing to DE&I initiatives, implementing smart training, streamlining partnerships and shaving costs across every segment of their programs. They have risen to myriad challenges from the pandemic to supply chain shortages while adapting to economic fluctuations, making their CW programs more nimble, cost-effective and smart. Congratulations to the 2023 honorees.
