<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: calibri;">Most businesses witness rapid change in their industries. They need to embrace radical transformation, push for innovation and encourage a culture of disruption, just to stay in the game. So far, there are no signs of slowing down. While we all feel the impact of this in our daily working lives, the ones who will truly experience this change are the future workers, consumers and contributors to the digital economy: The kids of today.</span></span><br> <br><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: calibri;">The proverbial &quot;kids these days&quot; are growing up in a world with unparalleled access and reliance on technology. Their consumption, comprehension and technical dexterity is awe-inspiring, yet there is a very real and growing concern over the STEM skills shortage.  </span></span><br>  <p><font face="Calibri" size="3">As an employer of Australian talent, a leader in the IT industry, and even as parents, family and guardians of future workers, Kinetic IT recognised the reality of this very problem.  So in 2015, we placed it high on our agenda.  What followed was an experiment, a Career Wheel and an opportunity to try something fresh when inspiring young minds consider their future as technical leaders and digital citizens. </font></p> <p><font face="Calibri" size="3"> </font></p>
