Hour 2 – Mark C. Perna, Answering Why: Unleashing Passion, Purpose, and Performance in Younger Generations<\/em><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"Joining the show during the second hour is the Founder and CEO of TFS, award-winning author Mark C. Perna<\/strong>. Mark will be discussing his book, Answering Why: Unleashing Passion, Purpose, and Performance in younger Generations.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Our one-size-fits-all approach that promotes \"\"college as the single path to a rewarding profession is putting both the economy and an entire generation at risk. Sending young people off to study for degrees without regard for whether they\u2019re actually trained for a viable career has resulted in an alarming skills gap in today\u2019s workforce.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re pushing young people to obtain college degrees, yet only\u00a01 in 5 students<\/a>\u00a0feel prepared for today\u2019s job market. We\u2019re saddling them with\u00a0enormous college debt<\/a>\u00a0for degrees that may not pay off. Intentional career planning early on will allow young people to choose advanced education purposefully, giving them a better chance of reaching their goals.<\/p>\n

Mark C. Perna is the founder and CEO of\u00a0TFS<\/a>. He coaches educational organizations and businesses to recruit and retain the younger generations in today\u2019s unique inter-generational workforce.<\/p>\n
