I just had the pleasure of having a long conversation with a young female technician I have been mentoring. I always hang up with her feeling as though she teaches me more than I help her. Right now she is struggling with her anxiety of the pressure to improve her productivity while retaining knowledge at an acceptable pace. I’ve encouraged her to join the TechForce Foundation and be open with her leadership. The fact that she cares is half the battle to conquer success. As we are craving young talent in our industry. We as owners, leaders and industry professionals. Have a duty to invest and partner with foundations and community partners, to help bring back the passion and combat the stigma. #investingrowingourfuture #strongertogether

Paul Meijer and TechForce Foundation have collaborated to create a "Young Mechanic" focused survey. They seek feedback from those who only have a few years or less in trade. Feedback is vital for your leaders to provide you with the tools, and resources to be successful in this industry and trade. Please take a moment (about 4 minutes) to fill it out. This is one of those moments you can take action, instead of complain. Link to the survey: https://lnkd.in/gffadhri j.
