Conversations | Schools Won't Teach Your Kids This!

I am absolutely honored to sit down with Anne Landers, the Chief Operating Officer of Junior Achievement of Arizona. Anne is a powerhouse in our community. She brings an incredible background to the table, from starting out as one of the first team members at the PR firm Decibel Blue, to leading international community development initiatives, to now also serving as the Chair of the Youth Committee for the Maricopa County Workforce Development Board. In this episode, we dive deep into exactly what Junior Achievement (JA) does. If you aren't familiar, JA is on a mission to empower future generations with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in the workplace and beyond They are teaching K-12 students across the state about money management, workforce readiness, and entrepreneurial thinking. The best part? They provide these critical, standards-aligned programs at absolutely no cost to the schools! One of my favorite parts of this conversation is when we highlight JA BizTown. This incredible program takes learning out of the textbook and provides hands-on, experiential simulations where students get to run a mini-city and grasp real-world concepts in an engaging way Even Anne says that getting to see the kids in action at JA BizTown is one of the absolute best parts of her day! If you want to know how we can set the next generation up for absolute success, you do not want to miss this conversation!
