What Careers Will Technology Kill? Sometimes it’s tough as an adult to get your teenager to tell you what they’re thinking. I’ve found this to be true particularly when it comes to college and picking a major. The New York Times recently ran a great infographic on how technology may impact the future. Among other things, it predicts what professions might no longer be relevant, such as airline pilots and higher education. I encourage you to use this graphic to get a conversation going that will give you insight into what your teen is thinking.

Communicating Successfully in a Family Do you ever feel like you are speaking French and your teenager is speaking Chinese? It certainly happened in our family. Parents have asked me to teach them how to talk to their kids about college. Given that I've focused on interpersonal communications my whole career, this was a welcome challenge. I've created a new offering--Communications in a Modern Family. This 3-session offering looks at the different personality types in a family the different communication styles of family members why communication breaks down and how to fix it The outcome: greater peace and understanding in the family. We also include our PathFinder Process for helping students find the right major for them. In addition, we give families a decision-making process they can use with their teen.
