What do today’s essential, frontline employees actually want from their work, their leaders, and their organizations? In this session, Brian Devine, President and CEO of Ignite Industrial Professionals, will share key findings from a National Survey of Essential Employees conducted in conjunction with researchers from the Fisher College of Business at The Ohio State University.
The industrial workforce has undergone significant change in recent years, and this research captures how expectations, priorities, and workplace dynamics have evolved among frontline employees. Drawing from anonymized responses across a broad cross-section of the workforce, the session surfaces clear patterns in what drives engagement, retention, and performance.
This session is designed for leaders who want to move from assumption to evidence and use data-driven insights to strengthen their workforce strategy and day-to-day operations.
