Where Did Tucson’s Jobs Go? Finding The Upside with Chamber Leader Michael Guymon

Where did Tucson’s jobs go — and what would it take to get them back? In this episode of The Upside, Edmund Marquez talks with Chamber Leader Michael Guymon about Tucson’s troubling job growth numbers, why the region needs leaders who are willing to be the tip of the spear, and what it really means for Tucson to start saying yes to business, investment, and opportunity. This is a tough-love conversation about Tucson’s future. Edmund and Michael dig into what’s holding the region back, what the data center controversy revealed about Tucson’s public posture, and why the city’s future can still be bright — but only if leaders, institutions, and communities stop hesitating and start acting. If Tucson wants more jobs, stronger growth, and a better reputation for doing business, this episode lays out the hard questions that need real answers. If you care about Tucson jobs, economic development, regional leadership, business growth, and the future of Southern Arizona, this is a conversation you need to hear.
