Meet the Team
Future Pathway brings together decades of experience in talent strategy, workforce development, marketing and communications to help organizations prepare for what’s next.
Founded by Anna Hennes, Jessica Palm and Molly Weaver, Future Pathway combines three distinct perspectives with a shared belief: the future of work is fundamentally human. Together, the founders have spent decades building talent pipelines, shaping employer and regional brands, developing workforce partnerships and helping organizations connect people with opportunity.
Their experience spans some of Kansas City’s most influential institutions and industries, from talent acquisition and workforce development to economic development, marketing and communications. They’ve built partnerships, led large-scale talent strategies, shaped national narratives and helped organizations rethink how they attract, engage and develop people.
Future Pathway brings those disciplines together to help organizations move beyond short-term workforce challenges and build intentional strategies for the future—grounded in data, strengthened by community and designed around people.
