LOS ÁNGELES, 28 de enero de 2021 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Para muchos, la pandemia ha causado devastadores problemas para sus vidas, desde perder el empleo o la vivienda hasta experimentar inseguridad alimentaria. Sin embargo, para otros, la pandemia ha supuesto la oportunidad de un nuevo comienzo, en especial en el Año Nuevo.

En mayo de 2020, National Health Foundation (NHF) lanzó un centro temporal de cuidado recuperativo como parte del Proyecto Roomkey, una iniciativa a nivel estatal para albergar personas que estaban viviendo en la calle, con el objetivo de mitigar la propagación del COVID-19. Para contratar el personal del centro, NHF se asoció con Chrysalis, una organización local sin fines de lucro dedicada a atender a personas de bajos ingresos y a quienes no cuentan con un hogar, durante su transición de vuelta al mercado laboral.

«Por medio de nuestra alianza con Chrysalis, las personas están adquiriendo valiosas habilidades personales y profesionales que les abren las puertas a desempeñar diferentes roles en el campo de la salud, algo que de otra manera no sería posible para ellos», compartió Kelly Bruno, presidenta y directora ejecutiva de National Health Foundation.

«Las personas a quienes atendemos son nuestros vecinos, amigos y familiares que están en mayor riesgo de experimentar los devastadores efectos sanitarios y económicos de la pandemia», informó Mark Loranger, presidente y director ejecutivo de Chrysalis. «Las oportunidades de contratación con National Health Foundation ofrecen una herramienta que no solo representa la entrada a un nuevo puesto de trabajo que los mantendrá financieramente seguros durante estos tiempos inquietantes, sino que también abre la puerta a un nuevo camino en sus vidas».

A lo largo de la pandemia, 13 empleados temporales han pasado a roles de tiempo completo como Guest Service Associates en National Health Foundation. En este rol, ellos continúan ofreciendo servicios de apoyo a los huéspedes de los centros permanentes de cuidado recuperativo de NHF en Pico-Union y Mid-City. Para algunos, esto representa una oportunidad para usar sus experiencias de vida al servicio de quienes actualmente están sin hogar. Para otros, como Dwona Beroit, este empleo está permitiendo explorar otras carreras en el área de la salud, como el trabajo social.

«Chrysalis realmente ha sido una bendición para mi, ya que sin ellos nunca me hubiera podido conectar con National Health Foundation. Gracias a NHF, encontré mi pasión de ayudar a los demás y actualmente adelanto un pregrado en trabajo social. Quiero ayudar a otros de la misma forma en que Chrysalis y NHF me ayudaron a mí», compartió Dwona Beroit, cliente de Chrysalis y funcionaria de NHF.

PlayUSA.com Predicts Super Bowl to Attract More Than $500 Million in Legal Wagers

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — U.S. bettors will place more than $500 million in wagers on Super Bowl LV at legal online and retail sportsbooks across 21 U.S. jurisdictions where sports betting in some form is legal, according to projections by…

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — U.S. bettors will place more than $500 million in wagers on Super Bowl LV at legal online and retail sportsbooks across 21 U.S. jurisdictions where sports betting in some form is legal, according to projections by PlayUSA, which provides news and analysis of the U.S. gaming industry. Whether those projections are met or surpassed, the matchup between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, Feb. 7, will almost certainly become the most legally wagered-on single event in U.S. history.

«With the expansion of legal sports betting over the last year, both in terms of new markets and growth within existing markets, a historic weekend is inevitable,» said Dustin Gouker, lead analyst for PlayUSA.com. «Half a billion dollars or more bet on one game seems almost unfathomable, but considering the direction of the U.S. market, that handle is easily within reach.»

With 20 states and Washington D.C., representing a population of about 120 million, now offering some form of legal sports betting, a year-over-year jump is certain. Last year, 14 states, representing a population of 70 million, allowed for legal Super Bowl bets. Those 14 states combined for an estimated Super Bowl handle of $300 million, according to PlayUSA.

The Super Bowl is always the most bet-on single sporting event in the U.S. In 2020, the American Gaming Association estimated that $6.8 billion was bet, both legally and illegally.

For this year’s game:

  • Sports betting is legal in at least some form in Arkansas, Colorado, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Mississippi, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Virginia, Washington D.C., and West Virginia.
  • Illinois, Colorado, and Tennessee did not offer any form of legal sports betting for last year’s Super Bowl. Together they represent three of the seven largest legal sports betting markets currently operating in the U.S.
  • Nevada, the second-largest market in the U.S., is expected to lead all U.S. markets with $125 million in bets on the big game, according to PlayUSA projections.

«The potential this year is enormous compared to last year, with legal sports betting available to 50 million more people than last year’s Super Bowl,» said Eric Ramsey, analyst for PlayUSA. «The U.S. market has changed so much over the last year. Not only has it nearly doubled in size, but bettors now make a higher percentage of their bets online compared with a year ago. And sportsbooks will utilize the Super Bowl to aggressively promote themselves to new customers, especially in fledgling markets like Michigan and Virginia.»

The Mahomes-led Chiefs are consensus 3-point favorites over the Brady-led Bucs, with an over/under that could surpass the Super Bowl record of 57 points by kickoff. Prop bets and in-game wagering will also add significantly to the handle, especially as bettors have become more accustomed to betting via mobile apps.

«It’s an intriguing matchup with two of the biggest names in the sport, Patrick Mahomes and Tom Brady, facing off, and that should help compensate for both teams being from relatively small markets,» Gouker said. «With the expansion of the sports betting market, it is close to a certain win for the industry, with the potential to reach more customers than ever before.»

Human Rights Campaign Names MGM Resorts International One of the «Best Places to Work for LGBTQ Equality»

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — MGM Resorts International (NYSE: MGM) is proud to announce that it received a perfect score of 100 on the 2021 Corporate Equality Index (CEI), for the 10th consecutive year. CEI is the nation’s premier benchmarking survey and report on corporate policies and practices related to LGBTQ workplace equality, administered by the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Foundation.  MGM Resorts joins the ranks of 767 major U.S. businesses that also earned top marks…

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — MGM Resorts International (NYSE: MGM) is proud to announce that it received a perfect score of 100 on the 2021 Corporate Equality Index (CEI), for the 10th consecutive year. CEI is the nation’s premier benchmarking survey and report on corporate policies and practices related to LGBTQ workplace equality, administered by the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Foundation.  MGM Resorts joins the ranks of 767 major U.S. businesses that also earned top marks this year.

The Human Rights Campaign Foundation is the educational arm of America’s largest civil rights organization working to achieve equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual transgender and queer people. HRC envisions a world where LGBTQ people are embraced as full members of society at home, at work and in every community.

«From the previously unimaginable impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, to a long overdue reckoning with racial injustice, 2020 was an unprecedented year. Yet, many businesses across the nation stepped up and continued to prioritize and champion LGBTQ equality,» said Alphonso David, Human Rights Campaign President. «This year has shown us that tools like the CEI are crucial in the work to increase equity and inclusion in the workplace, but also that companies must breathe life into these policies and practices in real and tangible ways. Thank you to the companies that understand protecting their LGBTQ employees and consumers from discrimination is not just the right thing to do—but the best business decision.»

The CEI rates companies on detailed criteria falling under four central pillars:

  • Non-discrimination policies across business entities;
  • Equitable benefits for LGBTQ workers and their families;
  • Supporting an inclusive culture; and,
  • Corporate social responsibility.

«At MGM Resorts we are proud to stand with the LGBTQ+ community and we will continue to foster the importance of representation, diversity and inclusion within our culture,» said Jyoti Chopra, Chief People, Inclusion and Sustainability Officer for MGM Resorts International. «This past year reminded us that we are better together, and we can make a palpable difference in the lives of so many who are simply asking for basic human rights. For more than 20 years we’ve worked across the communities in which we operate, to act on ways to lift others up towards equality; It is at the core of who we are as a company.»

MGM Resorts has a record of support of the LGBTQ community, as a National Corporate Partner of HRC and otherwise; For example, MGM Resorts was a founding partner of the Las Vegas chapter of the Human Rights Campaign in 2004. In 2011, MGM Resorts expanded its supplier and construction diversity programs to include lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBTQ)-owned firms.

Years before same-sex marriage was legalized across the entire United States, same-sex commitment ceremonies were performed at chapels at MGM Resorts’ properties, which continue to develop specialized marriage ceremony offerings and outreach to same-sex couples.

Americans call for kindness, honesty and civil discourse amidst the spiraling pandemic, political rancor and racial strife

BOSTON, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Disturbed by the growing uncertainty and turmoil in American life, the vast majority of the country’s citizens are ready to hit a «restart» button on how issues are framed, debated and solved, according to a new book on «relevance» by a leading communications CEO.

<a href="https://mma.prnewswire.com/media/1428982/Brodeur_Relevance_book.html"…

BOSTON, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Disturbed by the growing uncertainty and turmoil in American life, the vast majority of the country’s citizens are ready to hit a «restart» button on how issues are framed, debated and solved, according to a new book on «relevance» by a leading communications CEO.

The book, Creating Relevance in a Time of Uncertainty, is the second book on relevance by Andrea Coville, CEO of Brodeur Partners. Through new quantitative data, and practical cases from Brodeur’s clients, attitudes and behaviors are taking shape to solve the nation’s pressing, complex problems.

«But in this atmosphere,» said Coville, «it will take steps — not leaps — to put America back on track. It will take time, conversations, compromises and adjustments.»

Coville said despite a sense of national gloom across all demographic groups, there is a call for kindness, honesty and optimism among the American public.

Civil Discourse a Key

She said two factors are influencing the conversations that could lead to solutions. «First, the exchanges in political discourse are too often uncivil, rude and even boorish,» Coville said. «Second, more than half of the Americans find that reliable, accurate information is elusive.»

«Our data shows that the pandemic is generating significant social and economic strain, exacerbated by uncertainty about who to trust and where to go for reliable information,» Coville noted. «On top of that, especially after the Jan. 6 Capitol mob violence, there is a fear for personal safety and the threats of both right and left extremism.»

Silver Linings

The Brodeur CEO outlines some silver linings in the book:

  • Customers and employees long for business leadership to demonstrate a higher purpose, including a commitment to inclusion, ethical practices and stewardship of communities within and outside their enterprises.
  • Some 73% of respondents want to improve their physical health; 68% wish to spend more time with friends and family; 74% believe that «every person’s views should be respected»; and 55% say they have an obligation to speak frankly.

Data leads the way

The new book is packed with original Brodeur research relating to customer mindsets, clusters of relevance, multicultural tribes, Gen Z perspectives and social media’s influence. It also includes fresh research, conducted days before publishing, on business leaders’ confidence in the Biden presidency.

«Creating Relevance in a Time of Uncertainty» builds on the powerful Relevance Model detailed in Coville’s seminal first book, «Relevance: The Power to Change Minds and Behavior and Stay Ahead of the Competition» and proves the model’s power in practice. Written with longtime New York Times contributor Paul B. Brown, the new book includes seven in-depth case studies of household-named organizations from the business, education and nonprofit world that have created, enhanced and sustained their relevance.

Also included is a freshly updated look at the drivers of relevance – sensory experiences, logic, community impulses and values – and how they’ve changed since 2011.

«Andy cuts to the chase and nails how companies can quickly and efficiently connect with their customers by understanding them better,» said entrepreneur and venture capitalist Jere Doyle. «This is a book I wish I had read before I started my two companies, and it’s one I’ll be sure to have my portfolio CEOs read. A no-brainer.»

Pre-order now

«Creating Relevance in a Time of Uncertainty: How to Create a Deep, Lasting, and Mutually Satisfying Relationship with the People Who Keep You in Business,» is available for pre-order by signing up at Brodeur.com and will be available for purchase on Amazon.com this spring.

Brodeur Partners will also be launching an accompanying podcast series, «Creating Relevance in a Time of Uncertainty,» which will dive into the research and case studies featured in the book.

Idaho’s Tamarack Resort Moves Forward on Ambitious Expansion

TAMARACK, Idaho, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Tamarack Resort has submitted a special use permit application to the U.S. Forest Service to expand and enhance operations at the all-season destination.

TAMARACK, Idaho, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Tamarack Resort has submitted a special use permit application to the U.S. Forest Service to expand and enhance operations at the all-season destination.

The submission follows more than 18 months of groundwork completed by Tamarack as it updated its Master Development Plan (MDP), which sets the resort’s long-term development vision and identifies the mountain terrain necessary for expanding winter and summer operations on lands administered by the Boise National Forest.

In August 2020, Tamarack submitted the final MDP to the U.S. Forest Service. Filing an application for a special use permit is the next step in the lengthy process.

In its application, Tamarack is proposing:

  • An expanded lift network of six new aerial lifts, including a 10-passenger, base-to-summit gondola, three detachable quads and two fixed-grip triples.
  • An upgraded terrain network covering an additional 3,300 acres.
  • Enhanced guest services facilities, including a year-round facility atop Lone Tree Peak that would serve as a destination for the base-to-summit gondola for both scenic lift rides and dining.
  • Expanded all-season operations, including nearly 20 miles of new hiking and mountain biking trails covering approximately 980 acres.
  • New recreation offerings, including a via ferrata area — a climbing route that employs steel cables, rungs and ladders affixed to rock — and a mountain coaster.

«This application represents another step in the process of completing the grand vision of Tamarack Resort. We’ve all worked hard to get to this point, and we know a lot of work remains to be done,» said Tamarack Resort President Scott Turlington. «We look forward to continuing to work with the professionals at the U.S. Forest Service, and we are eager to begin engaging the public and other stakeholders in the public process that will soon follow the submission of this application.»

Tamarack plans to meet with Valley County community leaders in the coming weeks to walk through the proposal and continue its outreach with local stakeholders. The proposed terrain expansion will be subject to the National Environmental Policy Act, or NEPA, which will require a public comment process before a special use permit can be issued.

Milliman analysis: Competitive pricing rate for pension risk transfer costs drops to 99.1% in December, setting another record low

SEATTLE, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Milliman, Inc., a premier global consulting and actuarial firm, today announced the latest results of its Milliman Pension Buyout Index (MPBI). As the Pension Risk Transfer (PRT) market continues to grow, it has become increasingly important to monitor the annuity market for plan sponsors that are considering transferring retiree pension obligations to an insurer.

SEATTLE, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Milliman, Inc., a premier global consulting and actuarial firm, today announced the latest results of its Milliman Pension Buyout Index (MPBI). As the Pension Risk Transfer (PRT) market continues to grow, it has become increasingly important to monitor the annuity market for plan sponsors that are considering transferring retiree pension obligations to an insurer.

During December, the average estimated cost to transfer retiree pension risk to an insurer remained flat, at 101.8% of a plan’s total liabilities. This means the average estimated retiree PRT cost for the month is now 1.8% more than those plans’ retiree accumulated benefit obligation (ABO). Annuity purchase costs reflecting competition amongst insurers once again hit a record-low, dropping from 99.4% in November to 99.1% in December. This is the second time competitive rates have dipped below 100% since Milliman began tracking the MPBI.

«Pension risk transfer activity for 2020 ended on strong note, given the slow start at the beginning of the year,» says Mary Leong, a consulting actuary with Milliman and co-author of the study. «Low pricing rates may have spurred buyouts in Q4, but we’ll see if the trend continues into 2021.»

The MPBI uses the FTSE Above Median AA Curve, along with annuity purchase composite interest rates from eight insurers, to estimate the average and competitive costs of a PRT annuity de-risking strategy. Individual plan annuity buyouts can vary based on plan size, complexity, and competitive landscape.
