bredesen and mabrey
TN Governor Phil Bredesen and Johnson City TN Chamber President and CEO Gary Mabrey discuss the state of education in TN at the 2007 ICW Summit.

In business today, no competition is tougher than the global race for talent. In every industry, every job sector, and every part of the world, employers are asking the same question: How are we going to find, train, and retain the best workers?

Unless America makes dramatic improvements in education and workforce training, it will pay a terrible price, risking its place as an economic superpower and its identity as a striving, middle-class democracy.

 

 

Haycock and Pastorek
Kati Haycock, President of the Education Trust and Paul Pastorek, Louisiana Superintendent of Education discuss redesigning our K-12 school systems at the 2007 ICW Summit.
