So perhaps it\u2019s no surprise that MHI\u2019s Young Professionals Network (YPN) is dedicating an entire educational track to the subject at MODEX 2016.<\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday, April 5, the \u201cNew Generation Supply Chain Workforce\u201d event includes two panel discussions and two speaker presentations. The day concludes with an informal gathering for networking.<\/p>\n<p>These sessions are free to all MODEX 2016 attendees.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s been tremendous interest from both seasoned veterans of the industry and from young professionals just entering our field about how to attract more fresh faces to supply chain careers,\u201d says Devon Birch, MHI\u2019s director of membership and coordinator of MHI\u2019s YPN. \u201cAdditionally, there\u2019s a lot more inclusiveness in the field than there has been in the past. We\u2019re seeing more women, more young professionals and more diversity\u2014which is very encouraging.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Birch says the topics and speakers for the track were selected for their relevance to professionals both new and not-so-new to the industry. Panelists and presenters will share insights into how to recruit and keep the next generation workforce engaged, while supporting their successful career development.<\/p>\n<p><em>By Jeff Woroniecki, MHI chief operating officer<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nxtbook.com\/naylor\/MHIQ\/MHIQ0116\/index.php#\/64\">Click here to read the full article.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to attract and retain the next generation of supply chain workers to our industry is a frequent topic of discussion.
