Download or read book Gentelligence written by Megan Gerhardt and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Vital for any organization with multigenerational staffs, and for marketers, public relations professionals, HRD managers, or executives." Library Journal, Starred Review Gentelligence: The Revolutionary Approach to Leading an Intergenerational Workforce presents a transformative way to end the generational wars once and for all. This book first introduces Gentelligence as a powerful business strategy and shows why it is critical for the future of work. It then presents a practical guide and a call to action for leaders of all ages to unlock the potential strengths of each generation. Readers will learn how an intergenerational workforce can be reframed as a profound business opportunity and discover how Gentelligence can help them win the talent war, create strong, diverse teams, and build adaptable cultures that will flourish in an era of rapid change. Gentelligence shares groundbreaking evidence that will have readers thinking about their generationally diverse workforce in an entirely different way. Readers will discover: Where generational conflict originates, and how it results in both dangerous ageism and reverse ageism in today’s workplaces. Why the generation gap stems from a misunderstanding of shared core values across all generations. How to find essential common ground with colleagues, both older and younger, and recognize the unique needs that come with different generational identities. How generational shaming leads us to view those from other generations as competitors rather than collaborators, further damaging employee engagement, team dynamics, innovation, and organizational culture. How leveraging the unique strengths of each generation at work can lead to a win-win outcome for all. How traditional views on leadership have been turned upside down as a result of new generational dynamics, with many employees currently being led by managers that are younger than themselves, and older leaders struggling to make sense of changing norms around authority and power. Gentelligence reveals the opportunities within an intergenerational workforce and provides actionable tools to help leaders build Gentelligent organizations. Unlike other books on generational leadership, this book rejects common stereotypes assigned to different generations, replacing them with a deep understanding of why those who grew up in different times may behave in unique and valuable, ways. We challenge leaders to go beyond simply accepting generational differences to leverage them proactively to increase engagement, innovation, and organizational success.

Download or read book Generations written by Neil Howe and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 1992-09-30 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hailed by national leaders as politically diverse as former Vice President Al Gore and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, Generations has been heralded by reviewers as a brilliant, if somewhat unsettling, reassessment of where America is heading. William Strauss and Neil Howe posit the history of America as a succession of generational biographies, beginning in 1584 and encompassing every-one through the children of today. Their bold theory is that each generation belongs to one of four types, and that these types repeat sequentially in a fixed pattern. The vision of Generations allows us to plot a recurring cycle in American history -- a cycle of spiritual awakenings and secular crises -- from the founding colonists through the present day and well into this millenium. Generations is at once a refreshing historical narrative and a thrilling intuitive leap that reorders not only our history books but also our expectations for the twenty-first century.

Download or read book The Millennial Method written by Jason Schreiber and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2014-07-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Remember the good old days of coaching young athletes? Coaches gave the orders. The players responded with action instead of asking, "Why?" But those are examples of a relationship lost to the ages-specifically to the last millennium. And coaches from that last millennium in every field of sports are learning the hard way that in this millennium they now face a new kind of player personality, one defined simply as a product of the Millennial generation which began reaching adulthood about the year 2000. With their cell phones and their Twitters, their helicopter parents and their Internet-bred knowledge of almost everything they could possibly want to know, the Millennials have been driving old-school coaches so crazy they have either quit, surrendered or exploded in frustration. With The Millennial Method, however, veteran college baseball coach Jason Schreiber and award-winning journalist Gary Taylor offer a more effective way to tap the athletic potential of the Millennial Generation and improve team performance by sharing techniques used with players on Schreiber's teams at Alvin Community College near Houston, Texas. The Millennial Method begins with an overview of the generational divide facing managers in all walks of life-from corporate offices to the ballparks-in a bid to understand those differences. Then the authors focus specifically on Schreiber's nationally ranked 2014 baseball team for a closer look at tools used to bridge the generation gap at Alvin. The Millennial Method explains one sure-fire tool that allows coaches to be certain all of their athletes fully understand the concepts taught the day before, while taking zero time away from practice. The method discussed in the book greatly enhances an athlete's sense of urgency to improve his or her skills.
