Synopsis

As the gap between generations widens and our shared experiences dwindle, adults find it increasingly difficult to connect with and remain relevant in the lives of today's young people. The looming question is, what values can we share that will help them thrive through life's many challenges to become the next great generation?

In this paradigm-shifting book, Jonathan Catherman provides adults raised in the 1900's a fresh look at guiding 21st-century youth to become confident and capable adults. With relevant research and real-world examples, Catherman shows us the benefits of practicing and teaching four principles that both unite and empower.

- Build Bridges Between The Generations
- Transform Raw Talent Into Valued Strengths
- Practice Stewardship Before Leadership
- Live With Purpose

Whether the emerging generation knows it or not, they need you. Their greatness tomorrow begins with your guidance today.

In this paradigm-shifting book, Jonathan Catherman shares a fresh look at guiding twenty-first-century youth to become confident and capable adults. With relevant research and real-world examples, Catherman shows us the benefits of preparing to accept four challenges that will unite us all and empower the emerging generation to become the next great generation:

· build bridges between generations
· transform raw talents into valued strengths

"Moving beyond the traditional and often outdated notions of leadership, Guiding the Next Great Generation is a must-read to help inform and empower teachers, coaches, stakeholders, and parents to use strengths, stewardship, and purpose as catalysts to help guide and develop future leaders."--Matthew Ohlson, PhD, director of the Taylor Leadership Institute
