How Boeing is Investing in the Future
A blog from the Boston College Center for Corporate Citizenship's Executive Forum
Corporate citizenship is a key component of Boeing’s business strategy – fueling commerce, providing meaningful employment and playing a role in our communities.

With more than 75 million baby boomers nearing retirement in the United States alone, technology-based companies face a skills shortage as fewer students gain the qualifications needed for the high-tech jobs of today and tomorrow.
Like many of our industry peers, our competitiveness relies not only on our access to a robust, highly-skilled work force educated in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) but also that they enter the work force prepared with problem-solving, team work and collaborative skills needed for success.
