Hurst Community Initiative: Workforce Resiliency in Mountain Towns

This event was recorded on April 27, 2022 as part of the Hurst Community Initiative Town Hall Speaker Series, in partnership with Aspen Public Radio.

The Aspen Chamber Resort Association's Alycin Bektesh moderates an engaging discussion on mountain town workforce resilience with a handful of Aspen's in-the-know insiders, including: Auden Schendler from the Aspen Skiing Company; Kara Silbernagle from Pitkin County; Jonathan Jones from Atlantic Aviation; and Carolyn Tucker from the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment. Hear first-hand from industry influencers on winning strategies to support the local workforce, regional initiatives on everything from compensation to housing, and trends re-shaping the future of mountain town economies.
