Managing Generation Y: Top 5 Attraction and Retention Factors, McCrindle Rese...Mark McCrindle
To attract and retain Gen Y in this high-turnover era we must meet their top 5
workplace needs. This comes straight from our research of Australian Gen Y workers and in order of importance they look for:
1. Work/Life Balance:
For Generation Y their job matters however it is not their life – but rather it provides
funds that fuel their life. In addition to their job they may also be juggling study,
friends, family, sport, other work and community involvements. So when it comes
to their work schedule and overtime think: flexibility.
Remember: if there’s a clash in the work-life balance, life wins!
2. Workplace Culture:
This has to do with the relationships with others at work. For Generation Y social
connection with peers is one of the top retention factors. Not all of them have
support from home so they are looking for a place to belong.
Remember: they want community, not a workplace. Friends not just colleagues.
3. Varied Job Role:
Gen Y like change - it’s all they’ve ever known. So offer variety in their job
description and combine it with responsibility and promotions where possible.
Remember: Many quit jobs not because there is a compelling reason to leave,
but because there is no compelling reason to stay.
4. Management Style:
The ideal supervisor is one who values communication not just authority. One who
leads by example and involvement and not just by command and control. Gen
Y’s are just beginning their careers so offer support, mentoring, positive feedback
and public recognition.
As John Maxwell says “If you’re leading, and no one’s following – then you’re just out for a walk”.
5. Training:
Generation Y know that in the 21st Century it is essential to keep their skills up
to date. In fact 90% of Generation Y’s who receive regular training from their
employer are motivated to stay with their employer.
So today training is more than a tool for productivity – it is a tool for retention.

Therefore it is critical that today’s employees understand the background of their employer and so are equipped to bridge the generation gaps.

Generational insights to maximise engagement_Presentation slides.pdfMark McCrindle
Australia has long been blessed with stable
governments, high-functioning democracy and the rule
of law. However, what actively enables the flourishing
of our society, as reflected in this Future Donor report,
is not just government and its agencies, or even our
local communities but the for purpose sector. While
the retail sector facilitates vitally needed communities
of interaction, and our diverse local suburbs for many
are communities of belonging, it is the charities and
non-profits that build communities of purpose. These
for-purpose organisations are defined by three factors
which distinguish them from business, retail or local
communities: they are problem focussed, outward
orientated and action driven. This is why Australians,
even in this era of declining trust in institutions,
continue to hold charities in high regard.
As this report reveals, the proportion of Australians
who highly trust charities and not for profits is 50%
higher than the best performing government category
(local councils) and twice that of large corporations.
Charities should be further encouraged by the findings
that even amidst rising costs of living, most Australians
have financially supported this sector in the past year,
and of those who have given financially, more than
half (55%) have the same if not more ability to give, and
almost two thirds (64%) have the same if not increased
willingness to give.
This report looks to the future by analysing the
emerging generations and it reveals motivated young
donors who will respond to global issues not just local
ones, with a focus on solving root causes rather than
just meeting immediate needs, who want to be active
advocates not just passive givers and who can be
engaged digitally, and through that means, engage
others.
It is our hope that this report further equips the
for-purpose sector to shape thriving communities,
effectively engage and involve the next generation,
and positively impact the future.
Coined in the 1980’s, the VUCA acronym has been an
apt summary of recent decades (Volatility, Uncertainty,
Complexity and Ambiguity). In 2018 at the World Economic
Forum, the Prime Minister of Canada highlighted the
increasing acceleration of the trends with his statement: “The
pace of change has never been this fast, yet it will never be
this slow again”. Yet all of this was before the global COVID-19
pandemic further disrupted and transformed our times.
In such times, analysis of the trends and regular scans of
the horizon is essential to thrive amidst the transformations.
The primary characteristic of a leader, which enables the
important strengths of vision and decisiveness, is foresight.
The reason they can lead is that, having understood the
trends, they are able to see things not just as they are, but as
they will be.
At McCrindle we exist to empower human flourishing by
equipping leaders with research-based insight. Indeed
the leader with the honed characteristic of foresight, and
equipped with evidence-based insight is able to do more than
just see the future, they take up the great responsibility to
shape it.
We trust this report will help you understand the times,
prepare you for the emerging megatrends, and equip you to
lead and grow your team, community and organisation with
both humility and confidence.
Australian communities infographic mccrindle_2020Mark McCrindle
The not-for profit sector and the charities,
social enterprises and community organisations
across this nation provide much of the social
infrastructure that builds the capacity of
communities Australia wide. Their value to this
nation is demonstrated by the almost $143
billion given in the last year, most of it by the
community rather than government. The
esteem of this sector is demonstrated by the
size of the charity workforce, which employs
one in every ten Australian workers.
While the sector is viewed in a positive light
and five in six Australians give to charities,
these are uncertain times and Australia is
changing rapidly. Demographic shifts, social
changes and constant technological
advancement are transforming Australian
communities. How and where Australians live,
and how they allocate their time and money is
shifting
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
