Show Notes

You've read the headlines too many times with the words: labor shortage, decreasing graduates, lack of diversity, but what are leaders doing to address these issues? In the first episode of Technically Speaking, Dunwoody President Rich Wagner, sits down with Vicki Holt, manufacturing executive and former CEO of ProtoLabs, and Kimberly Randolph, Vice President of Energy Supply, Projects for Xcel Energy for a conversation around how industry and education partnerships can address the skills gap.

The conversation explores the ways in which partnerships are already working, where opportunities for new partnerships exist, and what role each side plays in making them successful on helping to close the skills gap.
