Supplier partnerships play a critical role in the success of any contingent workforce program, but they don't thrive without strong internal alignment. In this episode of "Back to the Future of Work," Michael Laskowski speaks with Rachel E. Marro, Senior Manager of Third-Party Workforce Operations at AbbVie, about strengthening supplier relationships, building internal stakeholder buy-in, and adapting contingent workforce programs to the needs of different functions and regions. Drawing on experience from both the MSP and enterprise sides of the workforce ecosystem, Rachel shares critical lessons from optimizing and expanding a successful global program.

Technology transformation is reshaping business priorities and delivery demands faster than traditional workforce planning models can respond. By the time a role is approved, a team assembled, or a new capability brought online, the need may already have moved. Every delay means missed opportunities and weaker outcomes. The cost of waiting has gone up. That makes workforce strategy less about access alone, and more about response time: how quickly organizations can convert changing demand into the right combination of skills, teams, and delivery capacity. It also makes delivery model choice more consequential, whether that’s talent, managed teams, outcome based projects, recruit-train-deploy, or a different delivery structure altogether. At Mindlance, we help organizations respond with agile solutions designed for this shift, bringing together talent, teams, and flexible delivery models that can adapt more quickly as business needs evolve. #WorkforceShift #Transformation #WorkforceOrchestration

Why “Pride”? Because for decades, even centuries, for a large number of human beings, it’s opposite was not humility or modesty, but shame, fear, and silence. The only way to convert the fear was to rename it. And then, bit by bit, build meaning into the new name so that it could include love, celebration, courage, and belonging. June 28, 1969, the Stonewall Uprising became the historical moment which transformed the word into a movement. Pride Day commemorates the turning point in the fight for LGBTQIA+ rights, and in the affirmation of a simple truth: every human being must have the freedom to feel pride in who they are. More than half a century later, that work continues. Pride Month is a commitment to building workplaces and communities where people don't have to hide parts of themselves to be accepted. It’s the understanding that Pride is something we build with everyday choices and everyday acts of courage. Let’s build Pride, this month and beyond. #PrideDay #PrideMonth #Inclusion #Belonging

Juneteenth is a great day to explore what freedom really means to us. As we commemorate that momentous day in 1865 when African Americans enslaved in Texas learned that they were free, we also recognize that the meaning of freedom evolves continually. In this moment in time, it must mean a commitment to break free of prejudice and racism wherever it exists, whether in systemic structures or in people’s minds. Happy Juneteenth! #Juneteenth2026 #FreedomDay #EmancipationDay
