The HR Collective is a professional network dedicated to fostering collaboration and knowledge-sharing among HR professionals in the manufacturing industry. It’s a space to connect with peers, learn from industry experts, and access practical workforce development resources.
Join us this month as we explore actionable tools and strategies to help manufacturing employers support career growth within their organizations. We’ll cover key topics such as career pathing, upskilling initiatives, and skills matrices, offering practical insights to retain talent, boost engagement, and build a future-ready workforce.
Providing clear career advancement pathways is essential for keeping employees engaged and motivated. When employees understand the skills, experience, and training needed for growth, they are more likely to invest in their development and stay committed to the company. For employers, career transparency improves retention, reduces turnover, and creates a more skilled workforce by aligning employee aspirations and skills with business needs.
At the end of the session, we’ll hold a Q&A discussion, giving participants the opportunity to ask questions.
This month’s session will be hosted by Chris Kelly, a workforce development professional with a proven track record in career development strategies, upskilling technical employees through education partnerships, and implementing skills matrices. Chris previously led similar initiatives at Chobani and now supports IMA manufacturing members in tackling workforce challenges. If you're experiencing workforce challenges and would like to explore potential solutions, reach out to her at chris@idmfg.org.
