Sometimes, lessons come when you least expect them.
A noted business speaker came here last year and did a great job talking about things that a community needs to do in order to attract young people to work, play and stay in their community.
This morning, I went through my mail pile from the last 4-5 days and noted that the speaker was quoted as saying something along the lines of “Look at your company. Is it ‘pale, male and stale?’ When a Gen X or (etc) applicant walks in, do they see anyone else their age?” The article went on to talk about employment and strategies to make your business more interesting to the new, young prospective employee.
That reminded me of how I spent my weekend.
