Keynote To Address Looming Supply Chain Workforce Crisis

The manufacturing and distribution industry is facing a workforce crisis. A declining working population will result in a shrinking workforce and an immediate loss of supply chain experience and manpower. The ProMat 2009 Keynote titled “Building The Workforce of the Future” will provide an in-depth look at this crisis and what companies can do to adapt to these changes, attract and retain the next generation of workers and take advantage of new competitive opportunities.
