Winning The War for Talent Managing Three Generations in the Work Place
Ideas for Managing Generations Three predominant generations in today’s workplace: Baby Boomers, born between 1946 and 1964 Generation X, born between 1965 and 1979 Generation Y (Millennials or Echo Boomers) born between 1980 and present Understanding differences leads to a more MOTIVATED and FOCUSED workforce.
Baby Boomers • Predominant value is Work • Need a reason to LEAVE an employer • Enjoy associations, conventions, working with peers • Long term compensation is important • Value loyalty, commitment and dedication Motivation: Position, power and prestige
Generation X • • • Need feedback, communication, teamwork Need to know company goals and direction Need a reason to STAY with an employer Grew up independent - latch-key kids Need Work-Life balance to raise a family Motivation: Family-friendly environment, flexibility, recognition
Generation Y • The "plugged in" generation because of familiarity with computers and the Internet. • New to business, need to get quick results • Require the most feedback of any of the previous generations, often rebellious, outspoken Motivation: Constant feedback, rapid progression, tools for the job

The Seven Biggest Mistakes that Entrepreneurs Make Which ones are you making? How can you avoid them?
Survey Says : … “Cash flow” … ‘‘Marketing” … “Not strategic” … “Not delegating” “Not focused” …. … • Small, frequent, early mistakes are OK. • But BIG MISTAKES can kill your business.
#1 Too Entrepreneurial • • • Too Opportunistic Too Optimistic, Impatient Over confident, “my way is OK” Ignoring feedback and the facts Relying on personality, not performance
#2 Lack of Strategic Direction • • Lost in the Daily Details Too much “DIY”, not delegating Neglecting long-term strategic issues No documented, shared Business Plan
#3 “That was Easy, Let’s Do It Again!” • • Making money doesn’t make you smart What mistakes or risks were avoided? Good time to start something new? Is your success really transferable?
#4 Focused on Profit • Monitoring Sales, Margin & Expense • But ignoring asset management • Especially cash flow, inventory and receivables • Most Undervalued Asset: Human Resources
#5 Neglecting Key Relationships • • Key Managers and Staff Biggest customer not the “squeakiest” Over-dependence on #1 client or supplier Is your bank a welcome and willing partner?
#6 Poor Marketing & Sales • • • “Product sells itself” “Price is all that matters” “Sales reps should do a better job” Lack of market knowledge Poor marketing communications Ineffective sales tools
#7 Distracted by Personal Issues • • Neglected until they become a problem Behaving like a rock star Family and favouritism in the business Personal issues affecting business performance
