    Due to some unforeseen technical issues, we're running back an interview from last year on this week's episode of Chamber Amplified from the Findlay-Hancock County Chamber of Commerce. With the kickoff of the high school football season only a week away, we thought it would only be appropriate to play back Findlay Trojans Coach Stefen Adams' interview from 2022, talking about working with young people. Do they really not want to work (like Doug's computer), or do they just work differently? Coach Adams talks about his experiences working with high schoolers, and how you can apply them to your business.
