Don't miss out on this FREE event for parents, HR professionals, business leaders, and educators!Join Mark C. Perna, a nationally recognized generational expert and bestselling author, as he challenges our community to rethink how we motivate young people and connect education to meaningful career pathways. Younger generations possess tremendous creativity, resilience, and potential. The challenge–and opportunity–is learning how to tap into that potential by answering the most important question: “Why?”
Mark Perna helps connect, engage, and answer why for young people, giving practical strategies that inspire purpose, performance, and real-world success.
A variety of door prizes (grocery and fuel gift cards ranging from $25 to $100 in value) will be given away at the end of the program. Light snacks will be provided.
This is brought to our community by Greater Mankato Growth in partnership with Regional Economic Development Alliance and Mankato Area Public Schools.
