Homage to High School Counselors

As part of our efforts to recruit students for our Fall 2021 semester (our inaugural class for FXUA), I have been interviewing high school counselors from around the Washington D.C.

Having worked with small business owners for most of my professional career, I am used to owners lamenting that their staff do not share the same passion for the work as they do. But, now, with COVID fully enveloping our traditional work-day efforts, a new cry has come up from nearly all business leaders, from companies large and small,: “why can’t my employees take any initiative?!?” It seems, based on…
