What is happening to America? Although we are still a major power, our chief product seems to be scandal and our biggest activity to assign blame. At work, especially, too many of us are in it for what we can get out of it. We treat people like objects and are indifferent to our collective future. Where will it all lead? And if we are indeed in grave danger, how can we rescue ourselves?As CEO of the leading international outplacement firm Drake Beam Morin, author Bill Morin has closely witnessed the distress (corporate and personal) wrought by downsizing and similar practices of the past decade. He has also grappled with challenges and change at his own fast-growing firm. Now, speaking from his unique viewpoint, Morin urges all of us in business to examine ourselves. It is time to reengineer our personal and corporate values, he argues, even as we reengineer our operations.The values at issue are not those of a particular political party, religion, or management philosophy. They involve dignity, civility, and a belief in the importance of one's work...all the things sorely missing from many businesses in recent years. Without them, we're just going through the motions and turning bitter about it. And this malaise and apathy eventually translate into a company - and a country - that is silently eroding from within.

Engaging Millennials: 7 Fundamentals to Recruit, Reward & Retain the Largest Generation in the Workforce - Thryft
Sold out
By 2025, Millennials will form 75% of the global workforce and more than half of them (58% of global Millennials) are living in Asia! As this huge demographic surges towards becoming a substantial contributor to Asia’s workforce, organisations continue to face engagement and retention challenges while balancing the need to stay relevant in a volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous world. Archaic methods of management do not deliver success with the new breed of employees. Instead, the outdated model leaves Millennials uninspired and unmotivated to produce results. Like any generation of workers, performance lies in management—if you're not getting what you need from your Millennials, it's time to learn how to lead them the way they need to be led. To get the best out of Millennials, it is imperative for leaders to modify their current management style. While the pop culture narrative would have us believe that Millennials are entitled, lazy, spoiled brats— Millennials are the generation of highly adaptive, bright, and quick to take on a challenge. If the different generations can learn how to collaborate in a way that capitalises on their strengths and compensates for their weaknesses, it will inspire a knowledge sharing inevitably encourages the crosspollination of ideas which can spark major innovation. Best practices and proven strategies from Google, Netflix, LinkedIn, and other top employers provide real-world models for effective management, and new research on first-wave versus second-wave Millennials helps you parse the difference between your new hires and more experienced workers.
