Listen now
Description
For our Line Life Podcast, we will soon resume with more episodes in our "Faces of the Future" series highlighting apprentice lineworkers. In the meantime, we are featuring the first part of a two-part series featuring Chad Dubea, a journeyman lineworker, the former CEO of T&D Solutions, founder of the Fallen Lineman Organization (FLO) and executive director of "Life on the Line," a movie about the line trade starring John Travolta.  The first part will focus on his experiences growing up in the utility industry and his early years as a lineworker. After starting his own contracting company, he is now helping lineworkers, both union and non-union, to launch their own businesses. He shares tips and strategies for lineworkers to launch successful companies to serve the utility industry. Learn more by picking up a copy of the September 2024 T&D World Lineworker Supplement, which features the article, "Lineworkers to Leaders," at T&D World's booth #73  at the 2024 International Lineman's Rodeo this October. We look forward to seeing you there, and having you as a guest on the Line Life Podcast.
