rp_Jeremy-Echols-BW.jpg“Frustrating” “Fleeting” “Tech-addicted” “Entitled” You’ve probably heard these words when describing millennials. But what about  “Creative” “Flexible” “Passionate” “Teachable”? Those words are at the heart of how God can use millennials and college students when they are well-led.

In this podcast, we get to talk to Jeremy Echols. He leads 30,000 people every summer. Well, not directly. That’s the point of this podcast. Jeremy directly leads a team of over 200 millennials to pull off one of the world’s largest camp organizations, CentriKid. You’ve got to hear these tips on utilizing this amazing generation of leaders. They are good, trust me. Here’s what you’ll get today.

  • A summary of work that goes into CentriKid,
  • Tips for tapping into the heart of millennials, including modeling and hands-on training.
  • Creating a culture of service in order to lead college students to do what they do naturally.

Are you utilizing millennials well? Here’s some bonus material for you that we highly recommend.

Jeremy Echols (@coachechols) leads the @centrikid team, finds new camp locations, plans training, and lots of other projects. He met his wife Emily working camp, and their daughter #BabyMadison was born in 2011.
