The United States’ manufacturing sector is in deep trouble. A critical skilled labor shortage is stalling production, threatening competitiveness and putting long-term growth at serious risk. With fewer workers entering the industry and demand continuing to climb, the gap between what’s needed and what’s possible is growing dangerously wide.

Heather Carroll, Chief Revenue Officer at Path Robotics, joins the show to explore how AI could be the turning point in the industry. With more than 20 years of experience in supply chain automation and AI-powered software, she shares what leaders need to know now – and why this moment demands bold action.

For CEOs in the manufacturing sector and beyond, this is an episode not to be missed.
