In this episode of Mavens of Manufacturing, Meaghan Ziemba speaks with Francine Rondenell of Dream It Do It in Western New York.

The organization's mission is to increase the skilled workforce pipeline entering manufacturing careers.

Many people have the wrong idea about manufacturing and manufacturing careers. They often think that manufacturing is dark dangerous and dirty! Or maybe they think why would I want to do the same thing for 8 hours every day?

Dream It Do It WNY is helping to eliminate these misperceptions about manufacturing and show the future workforce what manufacturing is and especially what it isn't!

It is not your grandfather's manufacturing. In today's manufacturing manufacturers place a strong emphasis on safety along with a clean work environment. Today's manufacturing is also very fast-paced with many different challenges requiring employees to be able to think critically in teams to find workable solutions.
