This shift to the future of work will therefore require an unprecedented wave of reskilling, with operations roles affected more than most. Join experts from McKinsey, MxD, and ManpowerGroup for a virtual panel discussion around the workforce changes that manufacturers should consider as the industry navigates the COVID-19 pandemic.
