TIAA CEO Thasunda Brown Duckett has four words of advice for anyone looking to be a better boss: Talk less, listen more. Each month Duckett, 51, hosts "jam sessions" with small groups of employees so they can share their ideas, concerns and perspectives with her directly. It can be hard to encourage people to speak candidly in front of the CEO, but Duckett says she has a go-to question she "always" asks employees to get them talking. By asking that one question, you "immediately connect" with your employees, Duckett said. Making "Coffee and T" a recurring meeting on her calendar has helped Duckett create a culture where employees feel "heard without judgment," she wrote on LinkedIn.

Through a spokesperson, Target confirmed Cornell's attendance at the meeting, but deferred to the White House for more details about the content of the meeting.

Require auto enrollment in 401(k) plansMost employers starting new workplace retirement savings plans could be required to automatically enroll employees in the plan. Secure 2.0 would let employers make a matching contribution to an employee’s retirement plan based on their qualified student loan payments. That way, it would ensure that the employee is building retirement savings no matter what. Under the Secure 2.0 package, it would move up to 73 starting in 2023 and then to 75 a decade later.

Duckett said that she wanted policymakers and employers to increase access to retirement savings plans, as well as educating workers about income options such as annuities. She also encouraged Gen Z and millennials to seek out savings vehicles like IRAs, which aren't dependent on an employer. It's a testament to how much employers have sapped their retirement packages over the past few decades that Gen Z and millennials could be in trouble.
