SIX SIMPLE STEPS TO ENHANCING YOUR WORK ENVIRONMENT - Click To Read Article
Human Resource Specialists nationwide agree: the foundation of a healthy culture (and therefore ultra-competitive edge) is engaged employees – you know, the ones who are the face and voice of your company – the ones who will determine the success or vulnerability of your business....

Older Employees in Big Demand!! - Click To Read Article
Employers are facing a critical workforce shortage in the not too distant future. There are fewer younger workers entering the US workforce than there are older workers leaving: in fact the ratio is close to 1:3. And this labor shortage is predicted for all industries, from construction and manufacturing, to technology and health care. At the same time, the definition of retirement is changing; more baby boomers are redefining traditional retirement planning by working longer. Sound like a formula for a great and continuing partnership between you and your (or another...) company?

Millennials – Can’t Work With ‘Em…Can’t Work Without ‘Em: So what’s a company to do? - Click To Read Article
Millennials: The youngest members of your workforce, given that moniker becaue they began entering the workforce at the turn of the millennium. As with their older counterparts, they have their own set of stereotypes that come along with them: "Slackers" - "Whiners" - "The 'get a reward for everything' generation." How do companies, and particularly we Boomer bosses, make the most of these young people's capacities while we help them learn how to navigate a work world that will not always be as warm and fuzzy as was mom and the soccer coach?

Does Your Company Suffer from Cross-Generational Crankiness? - Click To Read Article
Boomers vs. Millennials: No it isn't a promo for Wrestlemania - it's a real and growing problem in the halls of commerce, large and small. Millennials, those children of the youngest (what I call "junior") Boomers, were given the moniker because they entered the workforce around the beginning of the millennium, and brought with them a whole new world of career demands and workplace expectations that, to put it kindly, is met unenthusiastically by the middle and senior Boomers still running the show. And if you're thinking "Who cares?" you aren't seeing the huge productivity-busting implications of a "generation battle" that saps morale, impedes the kind of seamless communication on which great customer service is built, and dissipates company loyalty. So, how do you prevent this melt-down, or undo the damage if it's already happening?

Boomer Retirement Planning: It's Not Just for the Retirees - Click To Read Article
Boomers planning for their retirement has been all over the news of late; particularly hot is the revelation that we Boomers have not planned very well. What is not as well known is that Boomers themselves are not alone in that lack of retirement preparedness....companies are even less ready to handle the tremendous amount of information and skill that will walk out the door along with those retirees. Here's what you can do about it.

"Bottom-line" Culture vs. a Healthy One? - Click To Read Article
Since the mid-90's, research has shown that when people love their job and get great value out of the experience, productivity and profits are up, turn-over and burn-out are down. In fact, I recommend organizations consciously use fun as a cultural expectation, because it will increase employee and customer retention/relations, motivate individuals/teams, and ultimately improve overall productivity.
