Robert Boone transitioning from South Central Workforce Development Board

BOWLING GREEN, Ky.- Robert Boone is transitioning to a new job after leading the South Central Workforce Development Board as President and Chief Executive Officer. 

Boone has held this position since August of 2017. He’s leaving for a new opportunity with Career Team, based in Ohio, but he will be working from home here in Bowling green to continue working in the workforce development industry. 

Jon Sowards, current Vice President of Operations for the board, is recommended to take over for Boone in his absence. 

We talked to Boone today about his career over the past years in Bowling Green. He told us what his proudest accomplishment is. 

“My greatest accomplishment is really the reason why I feel so comfortable moving on at this particular juncture. And that is, we have been able at the South Central Workforce Development Board to recruit an all star team and also retain them,” said Boone.  

Boone said the South Central Workforce Development Board actually does business with Career Team so he will still be involved with the Board in some way.
