A recent article published on the Smart Business website discusses the war on talent as it relates to the manufacturing and distribution industry. Associate editor for SBNOnline, Jayne Gest, writes, “We’ve all heard it: There is a war on talent. The baby boomer workforce is retiring. Manufacturing is dying. The available workforce doesn’t have the necessary skill sets that employers need.”
Smart Business interviewed Stacy Feiner, Psy.D., management consulting director at BDO USA, LLP, for the article and asked questions such as: Where do businesses fall short with their talent management? And How can employers be more proactive in building their talent management system?
