Keep ‘em keen: a guide for managers on engaging people of all ages and career stages
It used to be that the biggest staffing problem managers had to deal with was high turnover. Today, the real issue is engagement . . . finding a way to get staff to do more than just turn up to work physically. It’s about finding ways to engage them mentally and emotionally. For some organisations lack of engagement is an ongoing issue, for others it is more circumstantial. Whatever the cause the result is the same: lack of engagement is a real issue with real costs attached.

- Why “engageability” is a critical factor when hiring new people
- What it really costs to have less than engaged people
- Tips for dealing with the “deadwood” in your organisation
- 3 keys to creating a highly productive workforce
- The secrets to engaging people of all generations . . . it can be done!
- Effective ways to engage people no matter what their career stage
- The simple strategies that separate engaging managers from the rest

XYZ: The new rules of generational warfare
by Michael Grose
The rules for living in families and raising children have changed dramatically in the last decade. Families are shrinking, parents are having children later in life and adolescence now stretches for twenty years and young people just don't leave home. In fact, such are the generational changes that some parents now leave home before their kids. To understand children and parents today it essential to look at the context in which we live. Michael helps readers understand how each generation thinks and functions and presents ideas to help us live with each other in imperfect harmony. He takes a look at the challenges of raising Gen X families - small families - and provides a new parenting model for raising 21st century kids. |
