"We don't have a perception problem in manufacturing." 🤔

When I sat down with Toni Neary of SME at the IMTS Smartforce Student Summit, I knew the conversation was about to get REAL.

And she's right.

A perception problem means somebody looked at manufacturing, understood it, and said no. That's not what's happening. Most of our kids never looked, because nobody ever showed them.

They don't know HR is a manufacturing career. Marketing is a manufacturing career. Finance. Engineering. Entrepreneurship. It's all right there.

So I asked Toni: is high school the right time to introduce young people to manufacturing?

Her answer?

"Dirty. It's too late." 😳

Parents, educators, manufacturers, workforce folks, I need y'all to hear that. If the first time a young person hears about this industry is senior year, we're not recruiting them. We're hoping.

Toni doesn't hold back on this episode of Cool, Clean or Dirty? from OmegaCool. She talks counselors, shop class, parents, and what actually gets a kid hooked on making things. Full episode in the comments. 👇

Then tell me in the comments: how old were YOU the first time you saw manufacturing up close?

And shop owners, if your machines are running Dirty, OmegaCool will hook you up with a Part 8
