    “The beginning of the millennial generation is 1980.”
    “The end of the millennial generation is up for debate, but I like to place it at that ’94-’95 time because a lot happened between 1995 and 2000. The internet happened.”
    “The internet is the one thing that defines the millennial generation.”
    “The three most common stereotypes I hear are these: millennials are lazy, millennials are entitled, and millennials are narcissistic.”
    “Here’s why I’m a millennial even though I listen to NPR stuff – I’m not accessing it via the radio; I’m accessing it via podcast.”
    “Millennials tend to be more fulfillment and cause driven in their work as opposed to results and monetarily motivated. They want to do a job that matters.”
    “If you want to recruit the best and sharpest minds you need to present yourself not as successful business-wise, but as doing something for a purpose.”
    “Every generation reacts to their parents’ generation.”
    “We do things differently. Time will tell if we do them better.”
    “The one thing that sets millennials apart is their diversity.”
    “No other generation has had the distinct “privilege” of being looked at under the microscope of the internet by the entire world during their most formative years.”
    “There are more thoughts being published every day than there probably ever have been on Gen Xers.”
    “Millennials are the first digital natives.”
    “The research on millennials is affecting the development of millennials.”
    “Millennials work from any where at any time.”
    “Millennials have a really sensitive B.S. meter and formality often looks like B.S.”
    “Changing jobs frequently is common for millennials.”
    “Results matter more than titles, more than time, more than anything.”
    “As millennials become parents that ability to work any time anywhere is incredibly beneficial.”
    “Managers, you have to trust the people who work for you.”
    “If you can’t trust your employee to work from home instead of sitting in a cubicle did you hire the right person?”
    “Encourage younger workers who work from anywhere to set up time barriers.”
    “What tone are you setting for your younger employees?”
    “Clearly communicate expectations.”
    “Clearly communicated expectations are one of the most beneficial things a young employee, especially in their first job, can have.”
    “Clearly communicate feedback.”
    “Do your best to not think of millennials as millennials.”
    “How do I lead that person well, not how do I lead that generational figure well.”

  • 5LQ Episode 97: Undermining Your Boss –
    In this episode of the 5 Leadership Questions podcast Barnabas Piper and Daniel Im take full advantage to Todd Adkins being out on vacation to talk about all the ways employees undermine bosses, the effects it has, and what should be done about it. We all undermine our superiors sometimes, whether or not we intend to, so there's something in this episode for everyone.

    * What are ways that people undermine their bosses publicly, in meetings for example?
    * What are ways that people undermine their boss behind his back?
    * How do people undermine their bosses without even realizing it?
    * What are the effects of these actions on the boss, on the team, and on the one doing the undermining?
    * If someone realizes they have been doing these things, what can they do to resolve and remedy the issues?

    BEST QUOTES
    “Do you actively tune out?”

    “Are you always playing the devil’s advocate?”

    “If you’re regularly supportive of the boss than the occasional frustration is just the occasional frustration.”

    “Another way people undermine the boss is just a lack of effort.”

    “Have a good attitude and be a person of integrity.”

    “90%+ of communication is non-verbal.”

    “We can have no intention of being closed skeptical or, but if we appear that way to somebody they no w assume we are that way.”

    “Know when to turn off the jokes.”

    “There are a lot more people who can dish it out than take it.”

    “If you’re a boss who can dish it out but not take it you’re a bully.”

    “If you undermine your boss you are poking the nerve of insecurity.”

    “Being self-deprecating doesn’t communicate weakness; it communicates self-awareness.”

    “The question you should be asking is why you are doing that.”

    “An apology almost always takes care of things if it’s a one-time issue.”

    “Just stop.”

    “Stop and think for five seconds.”
