We need to change perceptions of the manufacturing industry. Our Perceptions of Manufacturing Research Report is now available, laying the groundwork for strategic initiatives aimed at reshaping how young people and key influencers view the manufacturing industry. One of the biggest challenges for Queensland manufacturers is attracting people to the workforce. A lack of awareness, outdated stereotypes, an educational emphasis on higher education pathways, and competition from other industries are all impacting the talent pipeline for manufacturing. See the results from our investigation into how young people, parents and school influencers perceive the manufacturing industry: https://lnkd.in/g4cSnjTF #QueenslandManufacturing #Manufacturing #Research #Data #Insights
