Bridging the gap - Engaging with the new generations at workMark McCrindle
Ìý
This document discusses generational changes in the workforce and provides guidance for employers to engage new generations. It outlines that populations are growing and becoming more mobile globally and between jobs. The current workforce consists mainly of Baby Boomers, Gen X, and Gen Y, with Gen Y soon becoming the largest group. Each generation has different traits regarding how they view work, leadership, and training. The document recommends that employers focus on work-life balance, workplace culture, management style, job content and training to attract and retain younger generations. It also suggests moving from command-and-control to collaborative leadership and from classroom to cafe-style training.
This document summarizes a presentation by Mark McCrindle on emerging trends among 21st century customers and employees.

2. A table showing disruptive technologies and when they may emerge, including precision agriculture, wireless energy transfer, and artificial consciousness.
3. New power models are emerging where startups can disrupt large companies and social media gives anyone a platform, changing leadership values.
4. Skills needed for the future of work are changing, with creativity, emotional intelligence and cognitive flexibility becoming more important than roles like quality control.
The document discusses entrepreneurship and provides profiles of several successful entrepreneurs:
- Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Larry Ellison, and Aliko Dangote are profiled with their net worths and accomplishments.
- They have all founded or financed innovative commercial ventures and assumed significant risks, becoming billionaires or multi-millionaires as a result.
- They each invest their wealth wisely and use it to affect positive change in the world through philanthropic efforts.
This document discusses the business case for diversity and inclusion in the workplace. It notes that diversity focuses on women and ethnic minorities, while inclusion focuses on actions taken. It presents data showing that 30% and 60% are consistent numbers related to diversity metrics. Demographic changes in the US and Europe are increasing diversity. Diverse teams are shown to perform better, have better problem solving abilities, and make more money than less diverse teams. Specific companies like Intel, Slack, and Etsy are highlighted for their efforts to increase diversity through funding, policies, and hiring practices. The presentation concludes by providing recommendations for making workplaces more inclusive through self-examination, unbiased recruiting, and broadening social activities.
This is an introduction to some of the work being done to re-assess the current state of the personal development tools and processes and what we can learn from the business world.
Youth, unemployment and national security in nigeriaOnyinye Chime
Ìý
Abstract
Youth unemployment as it concerns national security has been garnering a significant body of literature. In the
burgeoning literature, the component parts of youth, unemployment and national security is not adequately
assessed and analyzed. This paper is an attempt to describe and analyze the component parts for a better
appreciation of youth unemployment on national security issues and challenges. The paper goes on to confirm
and put in historical perspective that the youth bulge and unemployment are catalysts to national security issues
and challenges. While not diminishing their importance, the paper posits that some of the data used in analyzing
unemployment need to be re-evaluated, placed in context and a new perspective proffered on the role and
importance of youth unemployment in the broad area of national security.
Demographic Trends and Financial Inclusioneric_zuehlke
Ìý
This document discusses global demographic trends and their implications for financial inclusion. It notes that while the world's population reached 7 billion in 2011, total population growth is expected to level off around 10 billion by 2100. Most of the remaining growth will occur in developing countries. The top 20 countries by number of unbanked individuals aged 15+ are predominantly middle-income nations like India, China, and Indonesia. Population pyramids from 1950-1990 show the developing world transitioning from a broad base to a more top-heavy structure, indicating an aging population.
At McCrindle we are engaged by some of the leading brands and most effective organisations across Australia and internationally to help them understand the ever-changing external environment in which they operate and to assist them in identifying and responding to the key trends.
For us research is not a list of survey methods but a passion to find answers. It is more than a matter of questionnaires and focus groups – it is a quest to make the unknown known. The best research clarifies the complex and reveals insights in a way that can be seen and not just read.
Only when the findings are visually displayed, engagingly presented and strategically workshopped can they have maximum impact – and be implemented effectively.
This presentation discusses effective presentation techniques. It covers establishing credibility and connection with the audience, delivering engaging content through instruction, illustration and interaction, using creativity such as different thinking styles, challenging the audience through various learning types, and facilitating change and influence. The presenter provides models for circles of influence and control, handling questions, aspects of content delivery, thinking hats, learning types, and the four Rs of change. The presentation advises reading the audience and avoiding ridicule, force, neglect of needs, and risky content.

• Discuss strategies that can help you develop your own skills as a Changemaker in your life or at work.
This document discusses strategies for attracting millennial workers to communities. It notes that millennials are becoming the largest demographic cohort in the US workforce. To engage them, communities need to cultivate causes they care about like community issues, communicate through young professional networks, and involve local institutions. Key attractors for millennials include ease of commuting, affordable housing, a distinct quality of place, engagement opportunities, and anchor institution involvement. Innovative ideas proposed are delivering an appealing reality, putting values on display, civic involvement opportunities, celebrating young contributors, and promoting the city lifestyle.
This document summarizes research from a team of millennials on what attracts and retains millennials to organizations and Northern Virginia. The team analyzed 28 sources, identified 21 themes and developed 5 stories. Story 1 describes millennial characteristics such as being naturally disloyal but loyal to companies sharing their values, enjoying technology, and preferring collaboration. Story 2 notes that millennials currently prefer cities and walkable, diverse areas with jobs, schools, and amenities. Story 3 finds that pay and benefits are most important to millennials. Story 4 discusses millennial values like ethics, social responsibility, and diversity. The research provides insight but did not deeply compare generations or establish clear generation timeframes.
