We have all heard and seen evidence of our area's understaffed workforce. Some businesses have been forced to scale back services or even close their doors during normal periods of operation due to staffing shortages. The Boone Area Chamber of Commerce is conducting a series of member survey's to populate a weekly Workforce Rundown, which will provide needed data and local context to decision makers who are trying to tackle these challenges.

While we are addressing staffing, having a good understanding of "what we are staffing for" can go a long way to helping understand our operational efficiencies. The Chamber has provided a calendar resource that maps out large scale events and gives you an idea of when volumes will be the highest, so you can prepare your business accordingly.

Mind Your Business is produced weekly thanks to a partnership between Appalachian Commercial Real Estate and High Country Radio.
