In today’s episode, I am thrilled to welcome Leah Jewell back to the podcast. You might remember Leah from episode 30 when we talked about the future of work for teens and young adults. It’s hard to believe that our conversation was THREE years ago. The future of work has changed dramatically in that short time and I’m delighted that Leah agreed to come back to talk more about this important topic. Since we last spoke, Leah has co-founded an amazing new company called Work Simplr that you will want to share with your teens and young adults. The company’s mission is to connect students to paid work and from what I’ve seen, they are succeeding. Leah shares all the details about Work Simplr and how students can get started. And you’ll want to stay tuned till the end when Leah and I talk about AI and how it will likely impact the future of work for teens, young adults, and well, all of us.Please visit the show notes page for more information and links mentioned during this episode.Connect with Me!High School Hamster Wheel Facebook PageBetsy Jewell Career CounselingInstagramLinkedInSubscribe to the podcast so you don't miss a single episode!

Bridging the Gap Between Students and Work with Leah Jewell

№ 77 Jodi McPherson &amp; Leah Jewell, UPSKLSMy guests for today are Leah Jewell and Jodi McPherson, the duo behind upskls.com —that’s U-P-S-K-L-S dot com —, a service slash consultancy slash coaching service that aims to fill a very clear gap in the intersection between young students needing experience to join the job market, and employers articulating the skills they actually need, by connecting one another through projects.In this very “upscale” conversation we talk about:🤔 Needs assessment in the educational system; or why it seems easy to find problems, but it’s a real challenge to turn that problem into evidence of a market opportunity investors consider a worthwhile venture .🚼 The changing landscape of the core skills sets of young people: why maybe it’s not changing fast enough, but why discussions on digital badges and “microcredentials” are only expected to accelerate in the coming years.1️⃣ Why a personalized, oneon-one approach to understanding a young professional’s expectations can be a powerful way to unlock their potential—and an amazing source of truth for employers.🎒 Why Jodi and Leah believe there is a place for more “agents” in the educational value chain, to tackle all kinds of critical issues including apprenticeships, career management, mindset and mental health… and even school debt!~💗💍~LMSPulse Mediahttps://linktr.ee/lmspulseListen to AI experts cut through the noise in our upcoming Elearning Success Series: AI in Learning Summit.20+ hours of content, all free: eLearnMagazine.com/ai-in-learning-summit

Leah recently pivoted from corporate to entrepreneur and is now the Founder and CEO of 2AR Consulting, providing expert help in the learning and education space.During our conversation, Leah provides advice and insight on the importance of instilling a lifelong learning mindset in our kids, why work experience, even in high school, is so critical to potential employers, and why kids AND their parents need to broaden their thinking about college, credentials, and certifications. If your teen or young adult is struggling to come up with a plan after graduation, I suggest inviting them to listen with you. It will definitely be worth your time and theirs.Be sure to visit the show notes page for all relevant links and resources.Subscribe today so you don't miss a single episode!
