Welcome to episode 12, where we discuss how to engage your millennial workforce. Sharon and I interview Adam “Smiley” Poswolsky, a millennial workplace expert, internationally renowned keynote speaker, and bestselling author of The Quarter-Life Breakthrough: Invent Your Own Path, Find Meaningful Work, and Build a Life That Matters.

In this episode, Sharon and I talk to Smiley about:

- Why companies need to get rid of the “corporate ladder” approach to career progression
- How communicators can rethink engaging their employees
And much, much more.
