Why Recent College Grads Are Struggling in the Workplace
In this episode of the Dudes and Dads podcast, we dive into a recent study highlighting how our 20-somethings are struggling, specifically to keep their jobs. We discuss how we can be preparing our young people to enter the workforce with purpose and mission. Drawing on a report, we look at the top reasons why recent college graduate hires have not been successful. These include a significant lack of motivation or initiative , poor professionalism, which encompasses being on time and meeting etiquette, challenges with feedback (receiving criticism poorly), poor organizational skills, poor communication skills , and difficulty working on a team. We explore how parents, guardians, and educators can better prepare young people. We also discuss the importance of developing both character and competency for success in any vocation. We share our perspective on how work, done well, is an act of worship, reflecting our relationship with God.
