William R. Kerr

[3] Kerr’s work has been featured and referenced across a range of publications, including Bloomberg,[4] the Harvard Business Review,[5] the Wall Street Journal,[6] Forbes, and the Atlantic.

[9] The project identifies and researches six forces that are “redefining the nature of work in the United States as well as in many other advanced and emerging economies.” The project lists the six forces as “Technology trends like automation and artificial intelligence; Contingent workforces and the gig economy; Workforce demographics and the “care economy”; The middle-skills gap and worker investments; Global talent access and utilization; Spatial tensions between leading urban centers and rural areas.” [10] In June, 2018, the project launched a podcast series called “Managing the Future of Work” that discusses these six forces with business, political, and community leaders.

[11] Additionally, Kerr and Fuller announced in June, 2018, that they will be teaching a course in the fall of 2018 as part of Harvard Business School’s Executive Education program.

[12] Kerr coauthored a paper with William Lincoln in 2010 that argued that increase in high-skilled immigration boosted American innovation.

[14][15] Kerr collaborated on a 2015 paper with Daron Acemoglu and Ufuk Akcigit which updated the real business-cycle theory.
