What are some of our interns most excited to learn about this summer? Dive in below ↓

"We shouldn't have to do that" Recently I was talking to someone in the industry and that was their sentiment surrounding extended & enhanced onboarding for new summer interns. We had just discussed how our Workforce Development team gets a full week to get our new summer interns (current college students studying something construction or engineering related) and how appreciative we are that our Execs & Operations Team fully support this investment. Should we HAVE to do this? To me that is irrelevant - we have data and anecdotal evidence showing that we NEED to do this. Our commitment to "Investing In People" compels us to take the time necessary to set these young folks (most of whom are new to the industry) up for success & for "Winning In The Field" Reminds us of the quote from Henry Ford: "The only thing worse than training your employees and having them leave is not training them and having them stay." It's good for the interns, Sargent, our industry, and our region(s). And it's a really fun week for Kevin Gordon & me! 😃 pictured: Meredith Brewer, Sargent Foreman and the architect of our internship program giving the new New England interns a peptalk! 📸 Kevin

If you know any students who are the first generation in their family to attend a college or university and they attend school in Chicago, NY/NJ or LA areas - please do let them know about this amazing program. The monthly workshops and being paired 1:1 with a mentor for the 2 year journey can be a real game changer in terms of building a network, practice interviewing/public speaking, seek internships and be career ready in the profession of their choice. And ANY is always looking for mentors willing to devote their time, experience and network to be paired 1:1 with a student through this journey. It’s a very personalized and tangible way to see the impact you can have on someone else’s life, education and career.

As their internships were coming to an end, I asked them how they felt about their experience and what their time here was like. 🎉👏 Check out the link below to see what our interns had to say about their time at INCON! 👉 https://lnkd.in/g2ZfF2eC

As we navigate the ever-evolving job market, one thing remains clear: internships are a vital stepping stone for young professionals. At ALJ Egypt, we recognize the significance of nurturing young talent through structured internship programs. Our initiatives are not just about filling roles; they are designed to empower future leaders by providing them with hands-on experience, mentorship, and a deeper understanding of their chosen fields. #Internships #CareerDevelopment #ALJEgypt #FutureLeaders #Mentorship #ProfessionalGrowth

Catch this conversation w/Inside Higher Ed & colleagues from The Washington Center, Bank of America & National Association of Colleges and Employers to talk about internship quality, access, and prevalence. I'll discuss recent findings from the National Survey of College Internships that is now administered by Strada Education Foundation. See you there!

Thanks for the opportunity to share more about my research and model that brings together cultural intelligence and experiential learning theory!

The first week of summer vacation for my kids is here. We're gearing up for summer camps and activities. This time of year takes me back to my college internship, where I ran sports camps for the local YMCA. We started and ended each day by reviewing the core values: Caring Respect Honesty Responsibility. We would talk about these as we opened the day, and at the end of the day, we would ask if anyone saw any of the campers displaying these behaviors. Those who did were rewarded with a little prize and a round of applause. If organizations reward and recognize core values, they will continue to permeate through the organization. Think about what behaviors are being rewarded and emulated and which ones you want to be magnified.
