What I Comment On
Written for journalists on deadline. If it is adjacent to any of these, ask.
-
Why "lazy and entitled" is the wrong diagnosis, and what the retention numbers actually show.
-
The unfashionable argument that most retention problems are caused by bad managers, not missing mission statements.
-
The next cohort into the workforce, and what employers should be doing about them before 2030.
-
Where the friction is real and where it is invented.
-
Trades over degrees, application volumes, ghosting, and the first ninety days.
-
What 25 years running an inner-city secondary school says about the people arriving at your induction day.
