The American economy is not working for most people. Jobs are disappearing, wages are stagnant, and inequality is on the rise. But it doesn't have to be this way.

In The Good Jobs Strategy, author Zeynep Ton challenges the conventional wisdom about what creates good jobs. She argues that the key is not to focus on creating more jobs, but on creating better jobs—jobs that pay well, provide benefits, and offer opportunities for advancement.

Ton draws on her extensive research on good jobs to identify the specific factors that make a job good. She shows that good jobs are not just about high wages, but also about providing workers with autonomy, control over their work, and opportunities for learning and growth.

Ton also provides a roadmap for how to create more good jobs. She argues that we need to focus on policies that support small businesses, invest in infrastructure, and provide workers with training and education.

The Good Jobs Strategy is a timely and important book that offers a bold new approach to creating jobs that pay well and improve lives. It is a must-read for anyone who wants to help build a better economy for all.
