Over the last few years I’ve interviewed, consulted, brainstormed, laughed, and cried with 100′s of employers and managers of teen workers. Believe me, no group causes more concern (and grey hair) for employers and managers than the millions of teens in America’s workforce. This is a generation that is skeptical, streetwise, creative, and remarkably resourceful; and, they don’t easily accept ideas at face value. From restaurants to retail, the teen employees of today are constantly challenging and questioning, as they want to understand the reason behind the direction, the mission, and the policy. As a result, this is creating tremendous challenges for employers and managers everywhere.
Inspired by overwhelming demand, I created Lead Like A Rock Star for those leaders in the workplace charged with the daunting challenge of supervising today’s teen workers. This event empowers employers and managers with strategies for effectively leading today’s most challenging worker. Targeted toward managers, owner/operators, HR professionals, and business executives, you’ll discover practical tips on how to recruit, manage, motivate, and retain our country’s emerging workers.
