In this episode of the Guiding Voice podcast, manufacturing industry leader Terry Iverson challenges conventional thinking about education and career paths, highlighting the critical gap between what young people aspire to and what the job market actually offers. He explores how mentorship—particularly reverse mentoring—is transforming workplaces by bridging generational divides, with younger employees teaching older professionals about technology while gaining invaluable industry wisdom in return. The conversation confronts a stark reality: only one in five American teens consider skilled trades as a viable career option, despite apprenticeship programs offering equal or greater earning potential than entry-level college positions, without the burden of student debt. Terry emphasizes that parents and educators must reframe the narrative around career success, recognizing that the traditional college path is not the only route forward, and highlighting how women now comprise 30% of advanced manufacturing positions—a testament to the inclusivity and opportunity in skilled trades. Through personal stories and hard data, he makes a compelling case for tailored educational journeys and the importance of understanding return on education (ROE) alongside understanding individual strengths.
Misconceptions & Reality:
Mentorship & Generational Impact:
Financial & Career Benefits:
Workforce Diversity & Inclusion:
Practical Guidance for Parents & Youth:
This episode reframes a critical societal conversation: the belief that college is the only measure of success has left millions of young people underemployed, over-indebted, and disconnected from thriving industries desperate for talent. Terry Iverson's message is both liberating and urgent—for parents worried they've "failed" their child, for young people unsure if the traditional path is right for them, and for an industry racing to fill positions with purpose-driven professionals.
