A perfect example of a company managing the needs assessment process like a champion is Hershey Co.
WHY?
1) They understand that looming skilled labor shortages will affect this business and that younger workers don't see manufacturing in a positive light.
2) They proactively partnered with the Shenandoah Valley Workforce Development Board in 2018 to encourage young people to seek careers in manufacturing and develop a future workforce.
