Transformation in Manufacturing: Cultivating Character over Skills

"The power and strength of our country is this next generation." These are the words of my guest today, Dave Hataj. Dave is a 35-year veteran of the manufacturing sector and founder of Craftsman with Character – a pre-apprenticeship program that focuses on character development and career guidance through mentoring relationships in industrial facilities. Dave will tell you that we have an entire generation that's looking for a chance. And it's our responsibility as manufacturing leaders to tap into our high schools and local communities to show that generation what's possible for them in the manufacturing sector. As you'll soon learn, he's figured out how to do it. And he's here to share his perspective and advice.
