It’s time to stop fighting the parents of our staff team.
On the heels of the very successful ACA staffing summit this past fall, we wanted to have Deb Gilboa “Dr.G” return to the show to discuss one of the topics that was a bit of a buzz for all the camp pro’s out there. Partnering with Your Staff Parents.
We look forward to hearing Dr. G’s perspective which just may change our attitudes and approaches to our recruitment efforts, developing excellent staff behaviors and driving retention by engaging, setting boundaries, and opening to a partnership with parents of our staff
As many of our listeners know “Dr. G,” is a leading parenting and youth development expert, family physician, international speaker, author, and media expert. Her straightforward advice (always accompanied by good humor) helps wade through the stress, doubt, and guilt that all parents and educators feel at one time or another. A lifelong camper, she has a knowing admiration for counselors and administrators who play a key role in shaping the campers around them.
