The unfortunate truth

There may be no industry where a shortage of people or not having the right people in the right seats is felt more than in Manufacturing. There are as many open manufacturing jobs in Minnesota today as there are lakes. On top of that, there are strategic leadership positions that haven’t been created yet in some companies that will be a priority to fill in the months and years to come.

People ARE your greatest asset

How many times does a key person give you their notice and you are left wondering how you are going to replace them?  Do you have a contingency plan in place for your high-risk talent?  Are you just posting your jobs online waiting for the right applicant to fall in your lap? 

You need to get strategic about your people planning just like you do in every other part of your business.  Hiring today in manufacturing has never been more competitive.
