Download Teach to Work: How a Mentor, a Mentee, and a Project Can Close the Skills Gap in America AudioBook Free
The United States is abundantly rich in adults with know-how. By joining mentors - educated adults with knowledge and knowledge - with mentees - teenagers and adults who lack motivation, experience, and role models in their lives - we can begin to close this difference dramatically. We can prepare the next technology for the jobs of tomorrow by adding real-world, project-based experience to their education. Coach to Work is a proactive approach for mentors presently sitting on the sidelines. Whether you are a banker, an attorney, an architect, an accountant, an engineer, an IT specialist, or an artist, you have the experience and skillset to become an ambassador of talent, grit, and transferable skills. The publication provides a step-by-step guide to help specialists discuss their knowledge with the next generation of employees through this intergenerational experience. Based on Alper's 15 years of mentoring inner-city high-school students, Coach to Work demonstrates how corporations, specialists, and boomers can have a significant impact on the professional future of America's junior. Drawing from real-life reports and characters received from students, teachers, and fellow mentors explaining pride of achievement, Alper helps specialists attempt this quest to transform lives, mentoring one college student at a time.
