During our time in Denver these Campus Recruiting leaders put their heads together on challenges ranging from internship programs to executive referrals - and everything in between. Proving once again the incredible value of coming together in-person to build a network & solve problems.

Having spent most of my career building and recruiting Talent, I have seen the value of internship programs from the employer side for years. As the parent of a college student (Mary Kate Wittkowski) I now see the benefits from a personal development perspective.

Living the brand. I mean, fully embracing the brand. I've followed Robert Pasin, CWO (Chief Wagon Officer)of #RadioFlyer for many years (and not just because they are headquartered in my beloved city of Chicago 😉 ). When I think about the power of a brand, Radio Flyer always comes to mind. Each time I read his posts, I have a window into the Radio Flyer brand.
When Robert talks about their internship program or being a Great Place to Work IL, you get a glimpse into the brand's culture. When he talks about the company being part of the TugBoat Institute or becoming a certified B Corp, you understand the brand's values. If aligning every step taken as a company with the brand is running up a big hill, then getting a brand to create emotion is a vertical mountain climb. Radio Flyer does both - really, really well.
Hats off to Robert and the Flyers. If you're a branding enthusiast like me, be sure to follow Radio Flyer and Robert. Not only will you learn, but you will be inspired by the brand (and smile 😁 ).
Chief Wagon Officer (aka CEO) at Radio Flyer | B Corp
Welcome to Breakfast with the CWO! Every year, I meet with interns and new Flyers to share Radio Flyer’s history and the personal lessons I’ve learned over the years. It leads to a great dialog and refuels my excitement for all that’s to come on Radio Flyer’s journey.
My favorite question from this morning was “What advice would you give yourself at the beginning of your career?”
The answer? It will happen, but it will take longer than you expect so be patient. Also, start an internship program ASAP. 😊
One way to retain more college graduates: convert interns into full-time.
The only way to convert more interns to full-time: have more internships.
The only way to have more internships: start or improve your internship program.
