Our solution? Get real business leaders in front of high school kids and tell teach them the lessons that have taken lifetimes of experience to learn. That's what we are doing at the The Grady Talks program at Grady High School in Atlanta.
For example, last year students heard these messages:
- How the concept of "Paying it Forward" is a way for all of us get from point to point in our careers
- How "Teenage Pregnancy" kills the career dreams for so many girls
- How getting in trouble the first time will lead to you getting a "Second Chance" and how that's were real choices matter
- How to deal with self doubt when you feel like you are "Not the Best"
- How high school graduation is the "Best and Worst Day of Your Life"
Would your company support our mission and let you go back to high school and speak about your career? This week we are scheduling the 18 lecture slots in the school calendar.
