Bridging The Gap focuses on understanding the unique historical, socio-economic, environmental and cultural differences in the way the Baby Boomer, Gen-X and Gen-Y (Millennial) generations were raised and how these influences shaped their work styles, values and expectations. Marc Robertson is able to masterfully bring audiences comprised of members of one or all of these generations to develop a new appreciation and empathy for why those who are their managers, counterparts or reports respond to situation differently than they do. It is first through this understanding that individuals become open to developing the new skills needed to help bridge these generational gaps. Robertson shows those from older generations how to encourage and motivate this unique generation of nonconformists who need to be engaged in meaningful tasks and function best when in teams. He also helps Millennials to understand why their exuberance may be perceived as being entitled, and how to set themselves up for success when working with a generation of leaders and managers from a pre-Internet era.
The Millennial generation of managers is transforming business in America. More than any previous generation, they don’t conform to traditional ways of doing things. They aren’t as devoted to any one corporation as much as to the product or service provided. They thrive in teams, happily work extra hours, require flexibility, and are driven to move up more quickly than many of their older counterparts feel they are ready for. Unlike Boomers and Gen-Xers, Millennials work in a sort of 24/7 eco-system in which work gets accomplished at all hours. But for Millennials to succeed in a fragmented business world that is still largely led by older generations, they must develop the awareness, empathy and skills to build trust with those that come from more traditional work styles. In Managing Up For Millennials, Robertson imparts a clear process to help this generation set themselves up for longevity and success in their organizations.
