Employees – PADT, Inc.

We have learned the hard way that “Finding True Innovators Is Tough, But the Talent Pool Is There.” And that pool is in the much-maligned millennial generation. In this contributions to Forbes.com, in their Grad of LifeVoice section, I explore what we have learned about that pool and offer up four suggestions:
1. Look for proactive behavior
2. Seek and encourage diversity in your workforce
3. Ask for a creative leam, then encourage more
4. Reward people who challenge your thinking and make you uncomfortable

As we get ready to launch the new website and the new blog, I find myself looking back on PADT’s 18 year history. While looking for some lab pictures I found a directory buried about 6 levels down on my C:\ drive called “CompanyPictures” And inside are all of the pictures that we have kept over the years. After looking at them I thought it might be fun to put them out there on the Blog.

Unfortunately we did not think to take a picture till 2000. So we were already 6 years old. Since then we only missed 2004. Take a look. Maybe you recognize someone you used to work with here, maybe you used to work here. Let us know what you think in the comments.
