Gain the Competitive Advantage in Attracting, Retaining, and Engaging Millennial Talent

2019-01-23T12:57:44+00:00By |Generations, Leadership/Management|

Most Millennials were raised by Baby Boomers and are often misunderstood by Gen X, Traditionalists, and even the Boomers. Millennials were born roughly between 1981 and 1996. This means that the Millennial age span is  23 - 37, and organizations can no longer afford to neglect their preferences: data shows that two out of every three Millennials hope to move on from their current employer by 2020. When you understand [...]

Employee Engagement and Millennials

2018-08-31T11:04:01+00:00By |Leadership/Management|

I have always been fascinated with the concept of employee engagement. Before I became a professional speaker, I owned and operated four retail-clothing stores in Houston. Back then, I instinctively knew the power of employee engagement. I saw first hand that if my employees were happy and motivated they would be more productive—selling more and growing the business. And I found ways to support and encourage these positive attitudes in [...]

2018-06-14T19:12:28+00:00By |Killer Keynote, Professional Speaking|

Before becoming a keynote speaker I will admit I was afraid of public speaking. As far back as I can remember the fear of getting up in front of any group made my heart beat fast and my nerves run wild. It took me almost 10 years to be comfortable giving a speech on the big stage. In this blog post I am sharing the tips and practices that have [...]

Hello Generation Interruption – Generations in the Workplace

2018-05-21T20:39:39+00:00By |Generations, Leadership/Management|

Many of you know I speak around the country on the subjects of Generations in the Workplace, Change and Rebranding, and Generational Opportunities. A few weeks ago I returned home from an event where the team who booked me was under the impression that my 45-minute presentation would give them the quick and easy steps in “How to Manage Your Millennial.” The director said that these young kids are a huge interruption in [...]

How to Write a Killer LinkedIn Recommendation

2018-03-16T00:17:10+00:00By |Productivity, Social Media|

I have to admit that I have neglected LinkedIn for a long time. Although I hopped on its platform years ago, most of my social time and energy went to the more playful and engaging sites like Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. And then the light bulb went off. It happened one morning while I was watching CNBC’s Squawk Box when I heard Joe and Becky singing their praises about LinkedIn. [...]

2018-06-07T02:15:58+00:00By |Generations, Leadership/Management, Productivity|

I have been presenting keynotes on Millennials and the generations in the workplace for nearly 10 years now. I can remember back in 2008 when there were just a handful of Millennials in the crowd. Today, my audiences are filled with professionals aged 36 and under, while the number of Millennials in the workplace continues to increase. This “New Workforce” is close to half of the US workforce and they [...]

Passing the Torch to Gen X Leaders

2018-03-16T00:18:07+00:00By |Generations, Leadership/Management|

Recently I was on a conference call discussing the new leadership style of Generation X. The keynote’s title was "Bridging the Generation Gap – Passing the Torch!". The leaders on the call shared with me that their leadership team, of mostly Baby Boomers, were all close to retirement.  It was time for Generation X to take over the leadership reigns. The Boomers were worried–and the X'ers were excited! Gen X leaders [...]

Generations in Healthcare – Each Generations’ Perspective “How and Why” of Work

2018-06-14T18:29:22+00:00By |Generations|

My last keynote focused around generations in healthcare.  The event  brought me to New York City where I had the honor of presenting to a room of about 150 physicians and some staff from hospitals across the country. They asked if I would do the opening keynote on “The Generations in the Workplace,” with a focus on healthcare. In addition they wanted  a breakout going deeper into generational perspectives in [...]
