If you've been looking for just the right gift for that workforce professional in your life, your search is over. Well, maybe.
For years I've struggled to explain to people what I do for a living. I can keep it simple by saying, I help people get good jobs. But really, it's more than that. In workforce development we also help businesses find skilled workers, and we help strengthen the local economy by ensuring both businesses and workers thrive.
So I sat down recently and tried to design a visual image that would explain it all. I came up with this Venn diagram that puts the workforce development at the center, right where we belong.
Not too bad, I thought. So I headed over to CafePress.com and put it on a t-shirt. Then a mug and a few other items as well. I've set up a shop at CafePress.com/workforcedev, where you can buy stuff emblazoned with this workforce development image.
I'll donate 5% of the price of every item purchased to the Garment Worker Center here in Los Angeles. Click here for more details about pricing and products, or just click over to the shop.
