Mentoring Millennials Builds Loyalty and Leadership
Millennials will soon make up the majority of the workforce and will be our future leaders. They want a mentor, not a manager. They want ongoing, constructive feedback, not quarterly or annual reviews. And they want meaningful work that contributes to the success of a company that is making a difference.
Whether you are a seasoned leader or an emerging one, as we journey through this book together you will learn mentoring techniques and discover leadership tools that you can apply immediately to build trust, instill positivity, and develop leadership.
You will learn how:
- Identifying transferrable skills and work styles complement one another.
- Storytelling is key to engaging the head, heart, and hands.
- Creating a culture of purpose and positivity is contagious.
ROCK STAR MILLENNIALS takes a look at both sides of the exchange between leaders and Millennials to see how both sides can benefit. We'll discuss how we can best serve millennials as their leaders and mentors, and in return, how can they best serve us as team members, engaged employees and emerging leaders.
You'll see many real-life examples from a variety of companies including Nestlé- Purina, Caterpillar Inc., Renewal by Andersen, McDonald's, and some smaller firms as well. These stories illustrate true leadership in action and provide ideas to apply in your own workplace.
