Learning New Tricks: Five Productive Practices Millennials Instinctively Grasp
In recent years, I’ve heard managers gripe that Millennials are lazy, needy, entitled narcissists, non-team players with no sense of loyalty. From what I’ve observed in my client organizations, in my personal interactions, and with my own three Millennial children, none of these labels are true.
Millennials do indeed have a sense of
loyalty—to the causes and the people they care about. Businesses look out for themselves first—why shouldn’t people? More people should have this outlook! You can’t expect loyalty when you offer none.

This highly-interactive
program guides you to build your influence and high-profile presence. You’ll learn the three habits of influential leaders and discover how to apply them to your world, regardless of the conditions. As a result, even the most difficult people will trust your judgment, respect your opinions, and willingly commit to your strategies and ideas. You’ll discover how to: • Connect so that others are open to hearing your ideas, even if they disagree. • Convey even the most complex information simply, without dumbing it down. • Convince others to trust your judgment, so they willingly take action. • Send purposeful signals that align your intention with your impact. • Influence the narcissistic and passive-aggressive people in your life.
Can’t seem to earn the respect of decision makers when communicating new ideas and strategies, or when
pitching projects and recommendations? Frustrating, right? Unnecessary – yes! Too many otherwise capable leaders simply have not learned or don’t practice the processes proven to capture the imagination, attention and respect of decision makers. In this fast-paced, practical workshop, you’ll be armed with time-tested information, tools and techniques preparing you to not only “get what you want,” but to also “earn the right to be heard” by those with decision making authority.

Change should actually be the middle name of every business, of every organization. The companies that don't get this, the companies that do not change, are the ones that go the way of the dinosaurs. No one every really agrees on what happened to the dinosaurs, but what does everyone agree on? They're dead! And it has something to do with their inability to
change! Video: The Productivity Pro on Change.
