There is a global fight for talent and North
America's largest cities are on the front lines.
Winnipeg is no exception.
Local companies have told us they are struggling with a shortage of skilled workers
to unlock their growth and compete in dynamic global markets. Investment increasingly
follows talent, further emphasizing the role a strong workforce plays in our city's
economic future. Winnipeg must compete aggressively, leveraging our competitive
advantages to attract not just business, but also people. As a nimble and private sector
driven organization, Economic Development Winnipeg and its business development
team, YES! Winnipeg, are pivoting to make workforce development and talent
attraction and retention a central part of what we do.
