How to Get a Promotion

Next Generation Leaders: What They Want and Need from the Workplace
Have you ever wondered what makes the Millennials tick? So did we, so in the fall of 2011, we interviewed Millennials and their managers to learn more about this generation.

The people we interviewed came from a variety of organizations and industries, ranging from Fortune 500 companies to small companies. The survey spanned different industries including the drug industry, engineering, biotechnology and financial services.

Don’t just build a team; build a world class team
The new generation entering the workforce is more attuned to teamwork, and more likely to prefer group projects over individual projects than any generation to come. Leaders all across the nation have noticed, and some aren’t sure if it’s a good thing or a bad thing. My answer? It depends. There’s nothing so powerful as an effective team, and nothing quite so destructive as a dysfunctional one.

Design a Lead Generation Scorecard
“Lead Generation refers to the creation or generation of prospective consumer interest or inquiry into a business’ products or services. Often lead generation is associated with marketing activities, such as cold-calling, targeted at generating new sales opportunities for a company’s sales force. Therefore a “lead” is correctly described as information regarding, or provided by, a consumer that may be interested in making a purchase. “Generation” is one of a myriad of activities that produces contact information and/or interest.” Typical Lead Generation Campaigns

Third Generation Leadership and Accountability
The bottom line in any organisation is performance. And performance demands accountability. The issue as we move from First Generation Leadership or Second Generation Leadership approaches to a Third Generation Leadership approach is not one of being accountable versus being unaccountable.

Leaders: Get Off Your Butts
My favorite saying is "The highest calling for any leader is to grow other leaders." Observation: There are too few outstanding leaders in this world because of the lack of great mentors to bring them along. Top level leaders are so consumed with trying to optimize performance in a frantic and messy world, that often they do not take the time out to nurture the next generation of leaders. I believe that is a huge mistake.

Obtaining Peak Performance
First Generation Leaders and Second Generation Leaders have a strong need to be in control. They see their role as that of making and implementing decisions. These men and women show conditional respect – in other words, obtain the results I need in the way that specify, and I will respect you – and they tend to have a low level of belief in the ability of people to manage themselves and to obtain desired results unless they are closely supervised. The result is that, far too often, managers interfere and actually hinder peak performance because of this need to control.

The Risk of Ignoring Millennials
One of the biggest challenges for businesses today is integrating the Millennials twenty-somethings into a Baby Boomer culture. They are the newest generation to enter the labor market, arriving with distinct ideas about what they expect from their jobs. They are our future leaders and our next generation of revenue-generators. So who are the Millennials and how do we manage their expectations while maintaining high performing organizations?

The Battle for Talent is Heating Up, Are You Ready?
This is an interesting time in the history of business - workplace dynamics are in the midst of a huge shift. Baby Boomers in their 60’s are running into the challenges of managing the very different needs of those in the Y generation. In fact, so much focus has been placed on these two sizeable generations colliding in the marketplace, that the generation in between them, Generation X, has been largely forgotten.

Managing Generation Ys
Generation Y is largest generation behind Baby Boomers. Often referred to as Millennials or Generation Next, these workers are just now entering the marketplace and seem to be creating quite a stir in companies all over the world.
