D.G. Macpherson on the ROI of Real Career Mobility What does it take to build a company where both employees and the bottom line grow? D.G. Macpherson, Chairman and CEO of Grainger, leads one of the companies increasingly recognized for doing just that. As part of the newly launched Where You Work Matters initiative, which analyzes real career outcomes across 1,750 large U.S. employers, Grainger stands out for how it advances, pays, and retains its workforce. Powered by data from the Burning Glass Institute and the Schultz Family Foundation, the initiative draws on insights from more than 12 million workers and 55,000 roles to identify which companies are truly creating upward mobility at scale. Now, D.G. joins Rajiv Chandrasekaran, The Emes Project, Where You Work Matters, for a live conversation at the Win-Win Workplace Summit. Together, they will explore what it actually looks like to build pathways for advancement inside large organizations, and why companies that invest in mobility are seeing measurable returns in retention, performance, and long-term resilience.
