Book Description
Hannah Grady Williams-a 23-year-old Gen Z'r herself-gives leaders a rare glimpse into Gen Z's worldview and provides practical tools they can implement immediately. After graduating from college at 18, Hannah set out to consult firms, from start-ups to Fortune 500 companies, including the likes of Chick-fil-A franchises, 9Round Fitness, and rapid-growth firms like Oakland Spine & Physical Therapy. You've read articles about the next generation at work. You know Gen Z is more diverse, entrepreneurially driven, and technologically savvy than any other generation. But why should you care? And more importantly: What's the first step your organization should take to embrace and lead Gen Z effectively? This isn't your traditional textbook report. It's your no-BS guide to connect with Gen Z in the workplace, simplifying how leaders and recruiters can adapt their strategies to attract, retain, engage, and lead the next generation of employees, with actionable, step-by-step assessments and exercises. When companies hire Gen Zers, they are no longer hiring just an employee-they are hiring a brand. Gen Z brings digital consumer expectations to the workplace, demands innovation and efficiency, and shares some surprisingly "old-fashioned" habits with their Gen X and baby boomer colleagues. Yes, there are some stark differences from their millennial predecessors, and you'll want to hear them straight from the voice of Gen Z. In A Leader's Guide to Unlocking Gen Z, Hannah Grady Williams answers these questions: Who is Gen Z . . . and why do you need to know?What is the "NarcisStory" and why must leaders understand it to effectively recruit, retain, and communicate with Gen Z?What do HR executives, recruiters, business owners, and forward-thinking managers need to do to remain relevant? What are simple steps leaders and companies can take with Gen Z to unlock their potential? Gen Z is rewriting how we do business, and these are decisive times. Companies who adapt now will have the competitive edge, and A Leader's Guide to Unlocking Gen Z is the key to unlocking the potential of this high-performing and rapidly emerging generation.

Gentelligence

Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1538142155
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 293
Book Description
"Vital for any organization with multigenerational staffs, and for marketers, public relations professionals, HRD managers, or executives." Library Journal, Starred Review Gentelligence: The Revolutionary Approach to Leading an Intergenerational Workforce presents a transformative way to end the generational wars once and for all. This book first introduces Gentelligence as a powerful business strategy and shows why it is critical for the future of work. It then presents a practical guide and a call to action for leaders of all ages to unlock the potential strengths of each generation. Readers will learn how an intergenerational workforce can be reframed as a profound business opportunity and discover how Gentelligence can help them win the talent war, create strong, diverse teams, and build adaptable cultures that will flourish in an era of rapid change. Gentelligence shares groundbreaking evidence that will have readers thinking about their generationally diverse workforce in an entirely different way. Readers will discover: Where generational conflict originates, and how it results in both dangerous ageism and reverse ageism in today’s workplaces. Why the generation gap stems from a misunderstanding of shared core values across all generations. How to find essential common ground with colleagues, both older and younger, and recognize the unique needs that come with different generational identities. How generational shaming leads us to view those from other generations as competitors rather than collaborators, further damaging employee engagement, team dynamics, innovation, and organizational culture. How leveraging the unique strengths of each generation at work can lead to a win-win outcome for all. How traditional views on leadership have been turned upside down as a result of new generational dynamics, with many employees currently being led by managers that are younger than themselves, and older leaders struggling to make sense of changing norms around authority and power. Gentelligence reveals the opportunities within an intergenerational workforce and provides actionable tools to help leaders build Gentelligent organizations. Unlike other books on generational leadership, this book rejects common stereotypes assigned to different generations, replacing them with a deep understanding of why those who grew up in different times may behave in unique and valuable, ways. We challenge leaders to go beyond simply accepting generational differences to leverage them proactively to increase engagement, innovation, and organizational success.
