Podcasts about labor shortage

In Matthew 9:35–38, Jesus is not celebrating the labor movement.  Rather, He is making a sobering declaration about the scarcity and inadequacy of qualified workers in the Kingdom His presence had ushered in.  The rule and reign of God were not merely imminent; they were immediate, because the Son of God was present among us.  The eternal Word of God had become flesh and was dwelling with His people.  Yet His mission to the downcast, the downtrodden, and the disinherited appeared imperiled by a shortage of laborers.  This message examines that shortage and explores its implications for the church today.

Welcome to Manufacturing Greatness with Trevor Blondeel, where we work with organizations to manufacture greatness by leveraging resources you already have to achieve greater retention, productivity, and profits. To learn more, visit www.manufacturinggreatness.com and click here to subscribe to Trevor's monthly newsletter. Now, let's jump in! What if the biggest threat to your production efficiency, workforce development, and manufacturing productivity was not a supply chain disruption or a failed kaizen event — but the voice inside your own head? On this episode of Manufacturing Greatness, learn more with Dr. Jenn Donahue, a retired U.S. Navy Captain with 27 years of military service, combat veteran, civil engineer, and one of only 3% of Navy officers to ever reach her rank. She holds a doctorate from UC Berkeley, has been inducted into the National Academy of Engineering, and is the author of Becoming the Warrior. Jenn brings her hard-won leadership experience to the shop floor, connecting the mental battles fought in combat zones directly to the self-doubt that holds back frontline supervisors, shift supervisors, and plant leadership teams every day. We cover practical tools for performance management, communication skills, and leadership development — including why the voice in your head might be the real reason your toughest conversations keep getting pushed to tomorrow. If you're serious about change management, talent retention, and building a stronger safety culture and operations management system, this episode is your starting point. 1:00 — Promoting top performers into leadership roles often creates a confidence problem, not a skills problem. 01:30 — Self-doubt shows up even in the most high-pressure environments, and recognizing it is the first step toward stronger leadership development. 03:00 — Several competing internal voices influence decision making every day, and building self-awareness around them is critical for frontline supervisors and plant leadership teams. 04:30 — The Mean Little Voice quietly erodes confidence by convincing leaders they are not worthy of their position, undermining performance management and talent retention. 05:00 — The Sneaky Little Bastard redirects leaders away from difficult conversations and hard decisions, creating real gaps in accountability, communication skills, and production efficiency. 08:30 — Instinct and intuition are distinct forces in leadership decision making, and understanding the difference helps leaders assess whether hesitation is rational or just self-preservation. 10:30 — A simple gut-check question — am I being rational, or am I being selfish — can help manufacturing leaders cut through avoidance and act in the best interest of their operation. 14:30 — The four-step Perceive, Assess, Ready, Act framework gives leaders a practical tool for working through self-doubt and taking confident action under pressure. 22:00 — Humility and imposter syndrome are not the same thing, and confusing the two causes leaders to discount the experience and results they have already earned. 29:00 — Recalling past wins, people developed, and problems solved is one of the most powerful ways to build the positive bias that drives confident leadership on the shop floor.

The result? More reliance on migrant visas and lower wages for agricultural workers. Critics say the policy shift could push pay down, worsen conditions, and expose deeper problems in America's farming system.

What happens when a $2 trillion cryptocurrency market suddenly requires monthly audits?

Plus, they explore whether there are enough auditors to actually make this system work, and what happens if quantum computing breaks cryptocurrency security.

I'm Josh Kopel, a Michelin-awarded restaurateur and the creator of the Restaurant Scaling System. I've spent decades in the industry, building, scaling, and coaching restaurants to become more profitable and sustainable. On this show, I cut through the noise to give you real, actionable strategies that help independent restaurant owners run smarter, more successful businesses.In this episode, I break down why the old-school mentality of treating your team like “family” is actually holding you back. Look, I love my people, but a real family won't fire you for showing up late. A restaurant, on the other hand? It's a business. And if we want to build sustainable, profitable businesses, we need to stop running our teams on emotions and start leading with clarity, accountability, and mutual investment. I'll walk you through the leadership shifts that changed everything for me—how setting clear expectations, constantly recruiting, and focusing on performance over sentiment will transform your restaurant from a revolving door into a powerhouse of talent. If you're tired of losing good people and constantly hiring, this one's for you.Takeaways80% of restaurants barely break even.If you can't keep people, the problem might not be them.Great restaurants aren't a family. They're a high-performance team.A players do not elevate the performance of B and C players.People don't leave places that invest in them.We need to be recruiting all the time, not just when we're desperate.Set clear expectations from day one.Externalize the rules and accountability.Lead from the front and invest in your team's goals.Build relationships with potential hires before you need them.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Restaurant Profitability Challenges02:15 The Leadership Problem in Restaurants03:44 Building a High-Performance Team06:40 Mutual Investment in Employee Growth09:34 The Importance of Constant RecruitmentIf you've got a marketing or profitability related question for me, email me directly at josh@joshkopel.com and include Office Hours in the subject line.

What happens when we completely rethink how manufacturing and logistics get staffed? Patrick Dippel joins us to share how Veryable is shaking up the game with on-demand labor solutions built for today's workforce and tomorrow's challenges.We all know the old way of doing things in manufacturing doesn't always work anymore. The younger workforce demands flexibility, businesses need to stay competitive, and let's face it—getting the right people for the job can feel impossible. That's where Patrick and Veryable come in. This isn't your average staffing solution; think of it as the “Uber of manufacturing.”Patrick breaks down how Veryable connects skilled workers with businesses that need them, using an innovative marketplace model. Whether you're a welder, a machinist, or just starting out in logistics, Veryable gives you the freedom to choose jobs that fit your schedule and skills. For businesses, it's a way to handle demand swings, reduce costs, and stay competitive without overcommitting to full-time hires.We dig into how this model is especially appealing to Gen Z and millennials, who value flexibility and getting paid fast. Patrick shares real stories—like a Texas welder who balances his work with running a YouTube channel—and explains how this approach is reshaping what it means to build a career in manufacturing.If you've been stuck thinking, “We just can't find good people,” Patrick challenges you to rethink that. The talent is out there—you just need the right tools to connect with it.HighlightsPatrick explains how Veryable's on-demand labor model works for manufacturing and logistics.Why 85% of Veryable's operators are Gen Z and millennials—and what they're looking for in a job.Real-world examples of how businesses are using Veryable to handle demand without overstaffing.Insights on why traditional labor models no longer cut it in today's market.The shift in manufacturing culture: from rigid schedules to flexibility and innovation.If you liked what you heard, hit subscribe, rate us, and leave a review.

During World War I, Americans were asked to make do with less. One thing in short supply was labor. The war hit farmers especially hard. They were being asked to grow more food while facing a labor shortage. Agriculture was crucial to the war effort, so many farm workers were exempt from the draft. But that didn't stop eager volunteers from leaving the farm to join the military or work in factories producing goods for the war.

To solve the labor shortage, manufacturing companies must re-brand as great places to work for a diverse group of workers including women and GenZ. What does it really take to attract, train, and grow a workforce that includes workers from a diversity of backgrounds? And what can manufacturers do today to make sure we're ready for that labor market of tomorrow? Mariana Cogan is a former SVP at PTC and the current head of Marketing at Hexagon America. From her vantage point as a winner of Forrester's Program of the Year and Full Circle Insights Greatest Overhaul Award, Mariana Cogan is ready to tell us passionately about how we can engage a new, diverse generation of workers in manufacturing and technology.

In this episode, Dominic Rubino interviews Samuel Schneider from Journeyman about innovative solutions to the skilled labor shortage in the construction industry by recruiting European craftsmen.

We're talking about the job market and the job search for 2025 – a forecast, coupled with some how-to's.  These seem to be universally accepted as the expectations for the 2025 job market: Cooling Down: The job market is cooling down from the post-pandemic boom. Hiring has slowed, and competition for jobs is increasing. Low rate of voluntary quits continues, but there is the possibility that it will shift back to a job seeker's market in 2025.  Resilience: Despite the slowdown, unemployment remains low, and the economy is still relatively strong. Labor Shortages: Several industries continue to face labor shortages, particularly in low-wage and in-person roles. ·       Diverse Strategies to Address the Labor Shortage: -40% of managers plan to engage contract professionals to fill skills gaps -39% will work with a managed services provider for critical initiatives and functions. -Contract professionals -Project consultants - Managed services providers Skills Focus: The demand for skills like technology, data analysis, and healthcare will continue to grow. ·       Demand for Soft Skills: As the job market shifts, there has been a greater importance placed on soft skills. Soft skills are becoming more sought after, since 79% of leaders believe the longevity of technical skills is limited to five years or less.  ·      AI Impact: Artificial intelligence is increasingly impacting the job market, automating some tasks while creating new roles that require skills in AI and related fields. AI also changes the skills employers need, shifting demand from repetitive tasks to critical thinking and technical expertise. Focus on Upskilling and Reskilling: Workers will need to continually upgrade their skills to remain competitive in the changing job market. ·      Increased Salary Transparency: Pay transparency in job postings has more than doubled since 2020. According to Indeed Hiring Lab, more than 40% of US job postings now include employer-provided salary information. In 2025, even more job postings will list the salary range to attract qualified talent.  ·      Remote Work: Remote work options will likely continue to evolve, with many companies adopting hybrid models. According to HR Executive, 33% of U.S. employers required full-time in-office work in 2024. This number is expected to increase, but not exceed, 50% in 2025. Increased Focus on Employee Well-Being: Companies are increasingly prioritizing employee well-being, offering benefits like flexible work arrangements and mental health support. ·      Skills Over Degrees: Employers are increasingly shifting their focus from traditional credentials, like degrees, to skills-based hiring. This shift allows for a more diverse talent pool and gives candidates without degrees a chance to prove their capabilities through relevant skills.  The rise of certifications and nontraditional educational pathways has significantly influenced this shift.   What all of this means for your job search in 2025: Develop in-demand skills: Identify and develop skills that are highly sought after by employers. Invest in certifications and training from reputable organizations.  Network: Build and maintain strong professional relationships. Customize your resume and cover letter: Tailor your application materials to each specific job. Prepare for interviews: Practice your interviewing skills and research potential employers. ·      Stay Informed: Follow economic and industry updates. Staying informed enables you to anticipate changes rather than react to them. Focusing on trends in your specific industry can also help you identify skill gaps and align your expertise with future demands. This is especially important if you have been out of work for a while.  ·      Wage Expectations: Generally, wages haven't kept up with inflation. Do your homework and set reasonable expectations for compensation.  Expect a Poor Candidate Experience: -Ghosting: Companies often fail to communicate with applicants throughout the process, leaving them feeling undervalued and frustrated.  -Lengthy Processes: Time-consuming applications and multiple rounds of interviews can deter qualified candidates.  ·      Don't Take on Your Job Search in 2025 AloneMarketing Documents – Skills - Mindset My sources for this episode: Bureau of Labor Statistics, Meritamerica.com, insightglobal.com, roberthalf.com  Are you in the wrong job that chips away at you every day? The document and coaching programs offered by Exclusive Career Coaching will help you find a job that uses your zone of genius, recognizes your value, and pays you what you're worth.  If you're ready to take your job search to the next level by working with a highly experienced professional with a track record of client success, schedule a complimentary consult to learn more:  https://calendly.com/lesaedwards/zoom-meetings2

In this episode of Work in Progress, Joshua Wright, EVP of Growth for Lightcast, discusses The Rising Storm, the labor research group's forecast of a massive labor shortage over the next eight years and how we can fix the problem before it hurts the economy. According the Lightcast report, the workforce will face a labor shortage of six million workers between now and 2032, the largest shortage in our country's history. Wright says the it is being driven by the retirement of the baby boomer generation, declining birth rates, and reduced participation in the prime-age workforce. But, he adds, while there is no silver bullet, there are ways we can solve the problem by acting now. It comes down, Wright says, to taking a closer look at the way we educate and train people for the workforce. "I think fundamentally this is an opportunity. It is a challenge, but it's also an opportunity to restructure and rethink the systems that were developed. We're already seeing states do this, creating new workforce and education offices, or putting those two together and thinking of, 'How do we transform our education and workforce systems?'" He goes into details on those solutions for developing more workforce programs to upskill and retain existing workers. Wright says employers play a key role in this strategy, as do the education institutions and local and state governments. In the podcast, Wright also explains how technology can help speed up these solutions and he addresses the role immigration has always played, and should continue to play, in our labor force.

In this months episode of Weld Wednesday w/ AWS Joe Young and I discuss the emerging technologies in the welding field, including automation and additive manufacturing. We highlight the importance of having a strong foundation in welding fundamentals and how automation is a supplement to the labor shortage, not a replacement for skilled welders. We also mention the need for welders to understand the settings and variables that affect the end result of a weld when programming robots. The discussion emphasizes the need for welders to be open-minded and adaptable to new technologies. We also explore the importance of embracing and adapting to new technology in the welding industry. We also emphasize the value of being able to operate automated equipment, program robots, and learn new skills.    Foe more information about AWS check out their website here  Welding apprenticeship website = https://weld.ng/q562l6  Jobsinwelding.com job search site = https://weld.ng/7hbuwv Careersinwelding.com = https://weld.ng/4w5t0c FABTECH = https://weld.ng/q2rv6e  

This weeks guest is Juvi Calvo, President of TipTig and Republic Testing Labs in Houston, Texas. In this episode we dive into the changes we'd love to see in the welding industry to enhance the trade as a whole. We all know about the labor shortages, the skills gap, and the push for automation to support skilled workers, with employers struggling to find qualified help. During our conversation,  Juvi and I discuss a few ideas on how to address these issues. We hope that some of you will consider implementing these changes in your own shops to boost performance, improve retention, and reduce turnover. If you're an employee or someone new to the industry, you might want to look for these practices at your next workplace.   Arc Junkies Podcast: Instagram: @Arcjunkiespodcast YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@arcjunkiespodcast9253 Email: Show@arcjunkies.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jason-becker-45407b72?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_profile_view_base_contact_details%3BKipEwR3uQXCmCjaEfNzo6w%3D%3D Arc Junkies Website: https://arcjunkies.com Arc junkies Merch: https://shop.threadmob.com/arcjunkie/shop/home Underground Metal Works: https://www.underground-metalworks.com/   Friends of the Show: Outlaw Leather LLC Outlawleather.com Instagram: @outlawleatherusa Use ARCJUNKIES for 15% off all in-stock leather goods SendCutSend Instagram: @SendCutSend Save 15% off Online: https://sendcutsend.com/arcjunkies/   Everlast Welders Instagram: @everlastwelders  YouTube: Everlast Welders         Online: https://bit.ly/37xJstI Use Codeword ARCJUNKIES at checkout to get upgraded to a free Nova Foot Pedal and TIG Torch with the purchase of any machine that comes with a stock foot pedal and TIG Torch.

The whole digital economy runs through hundreds of thousands of miles of communication cables no bigger than a garden hose, deep on the ocean floor. So what happens when they break? And they do break, about once every other day, thanks to fishing trawlers or natural disasters. That’s when you call a repair crew of engineers, geologists, marine construction specialists and more who often spend months at sea repairing cables. This vital industry is largely invisible and facing some big challenges. Marketplace’s Meghan McCarty Carino spoke with Josh Dzieza, feature writer and investigations editor at The Verge, who did a deep dive into the industry and those challenges.
