What a great opportunity to get with these young folks and come away with learning of your own. Now juxtapose that with Don Blohowiak at Leadership Now and his post a few days ago on how young professionals enter the workforce unprepared. Sounds like this group is going to make some organizations very happy to have tapped into them.

Absolutely Chris,
My experiences with the generation coming into the workplace now have not at all been like those that Don describes, although I do not doubt that his own observations are accurate too: both situations do exist.

The takeaway for us is this: we have an opportunity before us to let my Chaminade experience give us new hope versus being discouraged by other experiences similar to Don’s, AND we can seize our own responsibility to lead by our good example.

I wrote about this once before, back in October: see Among young people; our hope, our challenge.

Mahalo nui for your comment Chris, and for reminding me of your own post! --Rosa

Dear readers,
Chris wrote further on this a few days ago at his Alchemy of Soulful work, where he offers a link to Don’s article at Leadership Now: go to http://imaginactive.blogspot.com/2005/02/reflective-commute-part-two-confidence.html to read Chris’s post. I like the parallel Chris drew to parenting.
