Education, work, and opportunity are being reshaped in real time.
As automation, AI, and the 4th Industrial Revolution transform the future of employment, communities must rethink how education and workforce development connect. This session explores what today’s students—the “Why” Generation—care about, how they make decisions, and how we can inspire the motivation that drives success.
Attendees will learn how to close skills and awareness gaps, help young people build a powerful personal competitive advantage, and align education, employment, and economic development around a shared purpose. From career pathways and lifestyle conversations to attracting and retaining top talent, this program delivers practical strategies to unite stakeholders, break down silos, and move communities forward with clarity and confidence. Join Mark C. Perna for this engaging pre-conference session.
