Do you know what benefit Millennial employees want 3 TIMES MORE than cash bonuses?
Millennials, or the Gen Y workforce born between 1982 and 2002, are success-oriented but can be very high maintenance. They don’t adapt to corporate cultures. Your company must be “Millennial-friendly” or risk a high turnover rate with this not-so-tolerant generation.
With mass Boomer retirement starting, and the smaller number of Gen X workers replacing them, smart employers are currently scrambling to determine not only how to recruit their next generation of young employees, but how to retain the Millennials they have now.
Join us as Lisa Orrell, author of 2 best-selling books, Millennials Incorporated and Millennials into Leadership, explains the eight critical retention requirements Millennials seek from an employer. Lisa’s insight is backed by recent research into the Millennial generation and her years of experience working with multi-generations in organizations large and small.
In this presentation you will learn:
What makes the Millennial worker tick?
Where do you find and recruit this next generation worker?
How can you motivate, inspire and retain your Millennial workers?
Learn how your company can keep its best & brightest future leaders.

Generational issues in the workplace are one of the biggest challenges facing organizations today. This presentation covers the latest research and ideas to successfully lead 4 generations in the workplace.
From Working Across Generations to Daring to Lead harnessing multi-generational leadership is a clear and present priority. Four generations in the work place present a challenge for getting the most out of each generation to serve your mission.
It’s a simple fact that the key to Supervison is understanding people. It’s also true that understanding people is not simple. This module focuses on some of the key concepts of understanding people. Do not try to decide which is the one best way to understand people. All of these concepts have value and none is predominate. Note that the last page of this is instructive.
The technocrats and communications with other generations in the workplaceRobin Sargent
This slide show is about the different generations and their communication issues with the technocrats. I made each slide move like a tabbed folder in the animations.
I find Generation Theory fascinating & prepared this presentation for my colleagues. I used many sources, some of which I reference under recommended reading, all images were sources from the Internet.
Managers and leaders who are able to understand, communicate, motivate, train, and retain four or five different generations at the same time is mission critical in every industry.
This cross-generation management skillset is not one that managers may naturally have, but it is one that can be developed through learning and practice.

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.
