Where is the employment and business growth?

Which industries are growing and which are shrinking?

 Due to various factors, some industries grow while others shrink. This is important for those still in school and contemplating a career.  Training to be a buggy whip artisan these days does not hold much promise!

I recently read an article on LinkedIn that had a great graphic representing the industries that are growing or shrinking.


Quite enlightening!  Many of the solid, tired and true areas are shrinking. MY belief is that is somewhat due to the aging population. The areas of Health Care, Wellness and other related industries are projecting pretty strong growth.

What is to be learned from this?  If you are looking for employment, training for a future career or looking to move out of one of the more traditional, but shrinking industries, this is where you should be looking.

I myself have launched an online business in the Wellness field and it's growing rapidly. Proof in the pudding so to speak!
