The Workforce Wakeup Call: Let’s Turn the Conversation into Action! 🚀
I had a great time moderating the Workforce Wakeup Call at the 7x24 Exchange Northeast Regional Conference in Atlantic City alongside my fellow industry experts , ., , & .
As they say, third time’s a charm! This was our third discussion on the data center workforce challenge, and the audience helped make it one of our most engaging conversations yet. We talked about moving beyond awareness to action — from introducing students and young professionals to the industry, to engaging parents and educators, building partnerships with technical schools, and opening data center doors to show the next generation the incredible career opportunities available.
The message is clear: building the future data center workforce is a shared responsibility. We need to work together as an industry to attract new talent, develop the next generation of professionals, and create pathways into this growing field.
Thank you to my fellow panelists and everyone who contributed to the lively discussion. Let’s keep the conversation going — and, more importantly, turn it into action!
