Thrive Toolkit: Stuff No One Tells You About Leading Young People

Across industries, from construction to tourism to small business, Tasmanian employers are facing the same challenge:

How do we effectively lead and get the best out of young staff in the workplace?

With our Thrive Toolkit, Troublesmiths has worked with organisations including Master Builders Tasmania, RACT, and the North East Chamber of Commerce to equip supervisors, managers, and business owners with practical tools, confidence, and strategies to better engage and support young employees.

In collaboration with DisCo, who specialise in transforming people, teams, and organisations by building the capacity for workplaces to truly flourish, we’re hosting an informal, practical session designed to spark honest conversation and share real-world tools you can apply immediately.

This session is designed for managers, supervisors, and anyone working alongside young people who want to:

Better understand the challenges of leading young staff

Strengthen communication, expectations, and confidence-building

Hear from others facing similar experiences

Walk away with practical tools you can use straight away

Expect a relaxed, interactive session with open discussion, practical insights, and time to connect with others,
finishing with nibbles and bubbles at Troublesmiths HQ.
