Executives across U.S. industries remain more optimistic about economic conditions than employees, according to a Sept. 4 LinkedIn News post.
The findings are based on surveys of 1,903 U.S. employees conducted on LinkedIn between June 14 and 27, and 2,881 LinkedIn users at the vice president level or higher surveyed between June 11 and 25.
Just 16% of employees said the economy will be better off in six months, compared with 25% of executives. More than 4 in 10 executives think the economy will be in a better place in a year, compared with 26% of employees.
In healthcare, 70 hospitals and health systems have announced job cuts in 2025. Employee engagement also dropped to a 10-year low in January.
At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
