Michigan Business Beat | Jayme King, Lansing Promise, Strengthening the Workforce Pipeline

Описание: Chris Holman welcomes Jayme A. King, new Executive Director, Lansing Promise, Lansing, MI.

Welcome Jayme, please introduce yourself to our Michigan business community?

Lansing Promise recently launched a new strategic plan focused on postsecondary completion. From a business community perspective, how will increasing the number of credentialed and college-ready graduates strengthen the local workforce pipeline?

You bring deep experience in strategic planning, financial services, and technology. How will your business background influence operational efficiency, data use, and measurable outcomes at Lansing Promise?

Lansing Promise leverages private investment along with Promise Zone tax-capture funds. What role can employers and business leaders play in sustaining and expanding the scholarship and student-support model?

Many employers report challenges finding skilled talent. How does Lansing Promise help connect students to careers — including skilled trades, certificates, and high-demand industries — that directly support regional economic growth?

Community partnerships are central to your vision. What new or expanded collaborations do you hope to build with Lansing-area businesses to support mentoring, experiential learning, and employment pathways for Promise students?
