The Internship Playbook:
A Blueprint for Launching a Strategic Intern Program

Internship programs can play a critical role in building early-career talent pipelines and supporting long-term workforce strategy. This complimentary, interactive lunch is for HR, Recruiting, and business leaders who are building or evolving their intern programs.

Our panelists, Shelly Mullins of Atmos Energy, Jonathan Parks of Vizient, and Bailie Hirst of Toyota Industries Commercial Finance, will share real-world perspectives on what’s working in their internship programs, what lessons have been learned, and how such programs can support broader workforce goals. The discussion will continue through guided, small-group conversations designed to encourage peer learning and practical idea sharing.
