Mission Critical: Building and Keeping the Space Workforce of Tomorrow
As the space industry becomes increasingly commercialized, competitive, and mission-driven, one truth remains universal: having the right people on the team is mission-critical.
This session will explore innovative approaches to attract, develop, and retain a skilled and resilient workforce capable of supporting today’s complex space missions and tomorrow’s ambitious goals. Panelists will share how their organizations:
- Implement mentorship programs to build confidence, strengthen skills, and retain talent by ensuring early career professionals feel supported and valued.
- Engage future talent through career days, professional expos, and hands-on programs that connect students directly with industry pathways.
- Deploy strategic storytelling and PR to address the talent pipeline problem, with communications that speak directly to diverse audiences.
- Foster communication skills at all levels of the workforce to ensure all voices are heard, valued, and respected.
- Bridge generational gaps and adapt approaches to recruit and retain talent in an increasingly competitive market.
- Partner with academia to ensure students graduate with the skills needed to excel on day one.
From addressing certification needs to understanding why employees leave – and how to keep them – this conversation will provide actionable insights and practical solutions for any organization seeking to strengthen its workforce as a core infrastructure component for mission success.
