When Michael Coy joined Wolfgang Confectioners as its workforce development manager, the candy maker employed about five people who spoke Spanish.
Now, the Loganville-based company employs more than 100, a change Coy attributes to the company’s willingness to listen to employees and meet their needs, regardless of their background and experience.
Coy shares Wolfgang’s experience in the latest edition of the York County Economic Alliance Podcast, produced in partnership with biznewsPA. He is joined by Victoria Connor, CEO of the York County Bar Association and the York County Bar Foundation, and Anika Jackson, vice president for diversity, equity and inclusion at Family First Health. They all spoke Nov. 29 at a YCEA Economics Club event.
