TIPS FROM THIS WEEK’S FEATURED SPEAKER:
Eric Chester

Eric is the author of “Getting Them to Give a Damn”  He will be signing copies of his book at the conference.  The following is an excerpt from his book. Visit Eric's website or more tips. http://www.generationwhy.com

How Does Southwest Airlines Get their Kidployees to Give a Damn? Southwest refuses to deviate from these five time-honored principles and values.

1. Honesty.  In a world where they have so often been deceived, young people are drawn to those who shoot straight with no bull and zero hype.

2. Challenge. They appear to be looking for easy money – a simple, cushy job – when what they really want is to be challenged to the extreme limits of their potential.

3. Leadership. Many boomers think that kids today resist rules, structure, and authority. In reality, they’ve grown up in a relaxed society that has left them thirsty for discipline and principled leadership.

4. Opportunity. Consistently demonstrate how shorter-tem sacrifice leads to long-term growth and prosperity. Help your young talent understand that the key to success lies in the fusion of skills, character, and experience.

5. Recognition. The older we get the more we want to be acknowledged for our efforts.  Nothing feels better than a pat on the back from someone we respect and love.
