Local Geo-Skills and National Economic Restructuring
(November 25, 2008) Every geographic area has a unique set of geo-skills that drive its local economy. Geo-skills are the most integral part of the workforce and a fundamental asset of the community. They propel local industry, and now is the time to strategically strengthen and situate them in a way that ensures the long-term economic health of the community.
Today, the critical challenge for any community is to fully understand what geo-skills are driving its economy and why each is core to its industry base.
Understanding the local workforce and its unique geo-skills has two immediate benefits.
- First, by fully understanding its labor strengths and assets, a community will be better prepared to apply them toward local economic restructuring stimulus packages that are being passed down from the federal government, thereby addressing immediate needs that ensure long-term economic growth.
- Second, by using this understanding to strengthen its current economic base and create a more nimble workforce, the community will be better prepared to do business in the increasingly dynamic global economy.
To ensure that a community's workforce and industry base has the fluidity and ability to find work and provide a livable wage during economic slowdowns, its geo-skills must be developed as transferable assets that:
- can be effectively and continually used in national economic restructuring;
- can be applied across key local industries;
- can assist these industries to change, grow, and advance.
