What Notre Dame Football Can Teach You About Corporate Training
Taking advances from another industry and applying them to your business will separate and elevate you from your competitors. The military has been using video gaming for training since the early 1980's. Companies like Coldstone Creamery and Cisco are also using the interactive nature of gaming to reel in techno-savvy Millennials and educate them on both technical and customer service oriented skills.

What Boomer Women Want - New Rules for Retailing to these Harried Customers
When it comes to retailing, it's easy to get distracted by the hype about selling to the upcoming Millennials (twenty somethings) or Gen Xers (thirty somethings). Fine if your products are meant for these groups, but if your target-market is Baby-Boomer women, you'll need to operate quite differently from the current practices of most retailers...

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?

Mentoring and Millennials
According to Bob Canalosi, chief learning officer of General Electric Health Care, a top leadership competency needed in the 2020 workplace is to be a “legendary builder of people and teams.” Canalosi explains this as “coaching and mentoring both face-to-face and virtually; challenging people to achieve more than they believed they could.” Marshall Goldsmith, executive educator and coach, also predicts that a top competency for leaders of the future will be “sharing leadership.”

Millennials – Can’t Work With ‘Em…Can’t Work Without ‘Em: So what’s a company to do?
Millennials: The youngest members of your workforce, given that moniker becaue they began entering the workforce at the turn of the millennium. As with their older counterparts, they have their own set of stereotypes that come along with them: "Slackers" - "Whiners" - "The 'get a reward for everything' generation." How do companies, and particularly we Boomer bosses, make the most of these young people's capacities while we help them learn how to navigate a work world that will not always be as warm and fuzzy as was mom and the soccer coach?

Getting Millennials to Drink the Kool-Aid
Much has been written about the four (soon to be five) generations in the workforce. Stress between these groups is often the source of significant productivity loss due to annoyance. For this discussion, I wanted to focus on the Millennials (Generation Y) who are now 16-30 years old. The communication patterns of these young people are causing ruffled feathers as they are becoming a larger force within most organizations.

Clash Points at Work – Geeks and Geezers
Baby Boomers are lingering in the workplace. The younger Gen X and Gen Y (New Millennials) are growing impatient to ascend to leadership responsibilities. New graduates are knocking at HR’s door in record numbers. And technology, including social media, is transforming the mode and pace of communication. These trends are creating new opportunities, but not without foreseeable generational clashes.

Four Generational Clash Points at Work

Does Your Company Suffer from Cross-Generational Crankiness?
Boomers vs. Millennials: No it isn't a promo for Wrestlemania - it's a real and growing problem in the halls of commerce, large and small. Millennials, those children of the youngest (what I call "junior") Boomers, were given the moniker because they entered the workforce around the beginning of the millennium, and brought with them a whole new world of career demands and workplace expectations that, to put it kindly, is met unenthusiastically by the middle and senior Boomers still running the show. And if you're thinking "Who cares?" you aren't seeing the huge productivity-busting implications of a "generation battle" that saps morale, impedes the kind of seamless communication on which great customer service is built, and dissipates company loyalty. So, how do you prevent this melt-down, or undo the damage if it's already happening?

Attracting the Next Generation of Workers
Facing the expected retirement of millions of baby boomers and a smaller pool of Generation X employees to replace them, managers will need the help of another group of professionals: Generation Y. Also known as Millennials, this group consists of more than 80 million individuals born approximately between 1979 and 1999. Millennials are the workforce of tomorrow, and according to a survey conducted by Robert Half International with CareerBuilder.com, hiring managers consider this generation the hardest to recruit and retain.

Wired for work and wired for wisdom: Why you need both kinds of brains in your business
For the first time there are four generations in the workplace-and two of them are often maligned: the Boomers and Millennials, some of the oldest and the youngest in the workforce. While organizations and industries push out older "slower" workers and hesitate to hire "entitled, self-centered" twenty-somethings, we are wasting some of the best brains in business.

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. Because many of our clients struggle with how to best integrate Millennials into the workplace, we interviewed Millennials and their managers through face to face and telephone interviews. 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.
