Middle school prepares our kids for high school. High school prepares our kids for college. But does college always prepare our kids for life after college? In this episode, I talk with Dr. Kevin J. Fleming, bestselling author of (Re)Defining the Goal and producer of multiple viral career planning videos including Success in the New Economy. Kevin discusses the 4 skills and 4 steps our kids need to obtain true career success, the limitations of traditional schooling in obtaining these skills, and what parents can do starting in middle school to help our kids prepare.
