This Is Not "Old School" Manufacturing-It's a New Beginning!
From the brilliant mind of entrepreneur, business owner, and Black generational wealth advocate Karla Trotman, emerges a thought-leadership book unlike any other. As the owner of Electro Soft, a thriving Black-owned manufacturing company founded by her parents, Sheila and James Wallace, Trotman has developed her own lane in electronics manufacturing.
Manufacturing's workforce for decades has been male-dominated, with specific demographics creating its majority. However, the future of this barrier industry is looking brighter because a new diversified workforce is emerging. At the forefront of this evolution are diverse change-makers like Karla, innovators who see the evolution from a different perspective, offering a fresh take.
From ground-breaking viewpoints on industry recruitment strategies, and a game plan for securing much-needed funding for obtaining business ownership, to successful succession planning for a family business, Trotman has filled the pages of this book with actionable steps to benefit professional readers. If you are:
- Working in manufacturing and want to level up your journey
- A diverse business owner
- A woman in business
- A recent graduate seeking opportunities on a career path less traveled
- Or a family needing a solid succession plan with a proven track record
you will find value in the pages of this book. Trotman prides herself in curating content that aims to teach, entertain, and become a business-building bookcase staple. Instead of the dark, dirty, and dangerous stigma of yesterday's manufacturing, it's time to replace it with a modernized vibrant version.
