Focusing on Tomorrow’s Workforce Today

Tomorrow’s workforce isn’t something we can think about later. We need to engage students at an early age and create excitement and appropriate training for their future careers.

Today, John Brown, Vice President of HR at DENSO Manufacturing North Carolina, and DENSO Executive Advisor Jack Helmboldt, joined Representative Ted Budd of North Carolina to discuss community workforce development, specifically, how companies and government can work together to build a workforce of the future. Topics included challenges in finding talent, how to prepare middle and high school students, what training is offered and how to connect students to training and job opportunities.
