My advice to interns and new hires? All your relationships will require you to create value. Professional and personal. Empower someone to get a promotion? => value Make people happy and brighten their day? => value Generate 1mm in revenue? => value Make someone feel loved? => value People are attracted to value. Think of yourself as a value-creation machine.

We have our summer intern already on week two. Every Friday he has to report on the project that he's responsible for. He makes us aware of urgent items and things needing action. We have different people on our team that work with him on different parts of his project. That way he's accountable for his work while getting exposure to working with everyone on our team including Grant La Bounty, Chris Vassilian and Jeannette Cano. That gives him experience from four different points of view. But ultimately, we make sure one person is responsible for his success and so that he knows who he can turn to when thinking about future direction without ambiguity. This will be the second year of working with other industry partners to collaborate on meetings together so that our interns get to meet their interns and make new contacts. How do you manage your summer interns? How do you make the most of the summer for them and for your team all at the same time?

As part of my continued efforts to foster growth and development, I am proud to be collaborating with the Talent Acquisition Team at May Institute to prepare for our Intern Training Weeks. This summer, we are hosting 40 interns in various roles within the organization. With my experience in training and managing interns, I know that Intern Training Week is more than just onboarding. It's a great opportunity for these interns to start building their professional network and gain valuable career insights that will benefit them throughout their internship and beyond. Here are some key points for all interns to keep in mind: - Network, Network, Network! Attend company events, use social media, and seek mentorship. Connect with professionals in your field, join relevant groups, and participate in meaningful discussions. - Engage in conversations and build connections with peers and colleagues. These relationships can lead to mentorships and collaborations that can last a lifetime. - Be proactive in offering your help and expertise. Don't hesitate to demonstrate your value to colleagues and management.  - After your internship ends, stay connected with your colleagues and mentors. These connections can open doors to future opportunities and collaborations. Good luck to our future interns, we are excited to have you!
