In this episode, we continue the conversation with one of our Annual Meeting speakers, Terry Iverson, founder of ChampionNow. He discusses his mission to change outdated perceptions of American manufacturing, highlighting the shift toward automation and technology-driven careers. He emphasizes that while automation may take over repetitive tasks, it creates higher-paying, skilled jobs, particularly for those with tech skills like coding and critical thinking. Iverson also notes the importance of reshoring jobs to the U.S. and advocates for a stronger focus on technical education to build a competitive workforce.
