Over 80 People Attend Next Generation Workforce Presentation
On Friday, September 20th, more than 80 people came together for our Next Generation Workforce Presentation with Ted Abernathy of Economic Leadership. In partnership with the City of Fayetteville, Cumberland County, and the Community Development Foundation, Economic Leadership conducted over 20 interviews with local stakeholders as a part of the Next Generation Workforce Assessment. Results from those conversations along with data about the local labor force were shared and measured at the national and state levels. At the end of the presentation, Ted provided the group with strategic recommendations and opened the floor to additional questions. The conversation quickly picked up and there was an urgency to collaborate on the next steps moving forward.
