Today's emerging talent wants more than a welcome packet and an awkward free lunch.

This generation wants others to see, hear, and value them. 

They want coaching and wisdom; not onboarding jargon. 

🔷Humans have an innate desire to feel included.

To be part of a group or community. 

And above all, younger generations want training because they want to grow.

When communication is one-way (or nonexistent), newcomers to A/E/C quietly disengage. 

You miss the opportunity to transfer knowledge. 🚩

New employees find the door and leave, depleting your training investment, team stability, and project momentum.

And every time new hires walk out the door, your firm suffers from:

👉Lost productivity

👉Delayed schedules

👉Missed pursuits

Multiply that by a few exits each year, and the revenue impact is real.💰

Ongoing, impactful training with today's communication skills is not a perk. 

It has nothing to do with a freebie pizza lunch. 

🧨It's about having a retention strategy with bottom-line results.

Let's build the...

New project managers are watching you.

What are you showing them?

In every meeting, on every jobsite, and during every project handoff, your emerging leaders are quietly taking notes.

They may not speak up yet.

But they are watching how you...

✅Communicate under pressure

✅Handle mistakes

✅Give direction

✅Treat others

Your actions become their playbook.

🧨Here's the truth about A/E/C: Strong communication and visible ownership are non-negotiable.

It's not only about what you say—it's how you lead through words, tone, clarity, and follow-up.

If experienced leaders model sarcasm, vague directions, or avoid responsibility, younger project managers are likely to do the same—and think it's acceptable when it's not.

Your communication and the leadership culture of your firm come down to this:

🗝️You lead by example, not memos and long meetings.

Train your next-level leaders today so that they don't mirror outdated and bad habits.
