Internships are one of those things we need to take a closer look at. It is a season but should not feel seasonal. It should be strategic; an opportunity for everyone involved to grow and lead.
Company - When was the last time you revamped your internship program? (If you have one...)
Intern - How intentional is the company being with the time they've got you for? (What does the onboarding look/sound like?)
In this episode of Stop Drop & ROLE, Jen breaks down how your interns are absorbing more than just technical skills. They’re learning how your industry and company leads, communicates, prioritizes safety and trust - and whether it's a place they want to stay.
Jen walks through the framework of Stop. Drop. Reflect. Observe. Listen. Evolve. to get us thinking more intentionally about turning internships into leadership opportunities. Not just for the interns, but for your whole team.
From pairing with the right mentors and coworkers to having set 1:1 conversations where candor flows and a new point of view is welcomed, this episode helps you get clear on what constitutes a successful - thriving internship experience.
