Last week, The Wall Street Journal added to its coverage on rising Gen Z interest in skilled trades with a profile on social media influencers. These young builders are gaining prominence online while bringing awareness to vocational career options outside of traditional college pathways. Creators like Lexis Czumak-Abreu (@lextheelectrician) record themselves in the field via Instagram posts like this one (https://lnkd.in/gDpGWDYx), attracting 750K+ followers with day-in-the-life videos about their work. It’s proving a lucrative business: As searches relating to skilled trades rise, influencers like Czumak-Abreu are earning $200K+ in brand deals with companies like Klein Tools and Carhartt. In the effort to combat skilled labor shortages, online personalities spark interest from younger generations to bridge skilled labor supply gaps. So while they may not fit everyone's conception of traditional welders or carpenters, craftspeople like Chloe Hudson (https://lnkd.in/gPqQmMDD) and Matt Panella (https://lnkd.in/gUURvkMa) are bringing building trades to a new generation. We’re all better off for it.

Mayor Mattie Parker is one of the best workforce leaders in America. As mayor of Fort Worth since 2021, she’s overseen regional GDP growth at ~3x the pace of U.S. averages, topping $137B+ in real gross domestic product as of April 2024. That’s bigger than all but six *countries* in Latin America. What does the chief executive of the 12th largest U.S. city rank as her top workforce priorities? 1. Motivating more able-bodied men to participate in the workforce. 2. Doing the same for women by increasing access to affordable childcare. Listen in for Mayor Parker’s story from growing up in a rural community to becoming the youngest big city mayor in the country. She definitely has a Texas-sized vision for the future.
