PODCAST EPISODE #17

Addressing the Skills Gap With Gen Z and Games

We sat down with Tina and John Zwolinski, CEO and Chief Experience Officer, at skillsgapp, a gaming platform that is addressing the skills gaps for skilled trade professions. We covered a lot of ground in this episode, but more importantly, we discussed relationships, the impact on the manufacturing industry if the cycle of the loss of expertise continues, and how businesses can help create meaning to younger generations’ work.
