The Ironworker Management Progressive Action Cooperative Trust (IMPACT) went hyper local at its latest Regional Advisory Board Meeting in Salt Lake City.
“I think that anyone who attended this conference would have to admit that very honest, and straightforward labor-management dialogue was the driving theme of the conference… And in times such as these, that is exactly what people are looking for in their leaders. What the Ironworkers have clearly set forth is that “activities” should not be mistaken for “results”. The more labor (and management) leaders who embrace this approach, the more market share will directly result.”
