Synopsis
There are more than 83 million millennials in the United States, representing 36% of our workforce. By 2025, that number will grown to 75%. If millennials are not your employees yet, they will be soon - as well as your biggest customers. Our ability to attract, train, manage, and retain this next generation of leaders is critical to the future success of our businesses. But a hug and damaging connection, communication and understanding gap exists between non-millennials and millennials in our workplaces. Why? Because millennials are not a problem to be fixed. They are an opportunity to be embraced and we all need to find relevance in bridging this gap to create next generation leaders by: - Creating powerful, authentic relationships - Promoting behavior that creates a culture of openness, delivering value, and shared purpose - Teaching real-deal skills and increasing individual accountability to drive sustained results That's what Chasing Relevance is about: being better leaders by guiding millennials and letting them guide us, having everyone be their best self by caring enough to connect. The choice is clear: Care more about millennials by pushing ourselves to be better leaders, coaches, and mentors. Because we love them, we need them and we want them to succeed. It's time to stop chasing relevance and make it happen.
