Women in Blue-Collar Careers, with Ken Rusk
Ken Rusk is a blue-collar business entrepreneur and best-selling author. Ken visualized the life he wanted, set goals, and launched multiple successful endeavors over the last 40 years. He has extensive experience in hiring, training, and developing first-time job seekers, particularly those without college degrees.
Ken started his first job as a “ditch digger” at 15 and evolved his experience with that into a successful company. Today, blue-collar trades are just as much a path to success as they were then, but fewer people pursue them. The economy is in desperate need of skilled tradespeople, which makes now a perfect time to pursue a blue-collar career.
