It seems that Gen-Zers like to thank everyone in public for everything they do, even if it is minor.  Is this your experience?  Hear about my friend Stella and and her experience.

Do Gen-Zers (aka Zoomers) know how to dress appropriately for work?  Hear about my friend Stella and her experience in dealing with Gen-Zers.

In the last episode, I discussed three reasons why you should use movies in training. 

In this episode, I examine the things you need to do and keep in mind, that if you do decide to use movies in training.

Many training courses include movie clips.  However, including movie clips for the sake of including them is a waste of time.  Learn three reasons why you should include them.  

In January 2024, I received a letter from NYC Department of Personnel.  I could not believe that he was alive! 

I wanted to share with you five little ideas (an effect, a bias, two fallacies, and a saying) from Morgan Housel's February 2020 article.  Thought you might find them interesting.

In my last episode, I shared a story about Stella and her younger (Gen-Z) co-worker and how the younger worker "hijacked" a meeting.  In this episode, I discuss thoughts on what needs to be done about the "hijacker."

Recently, I was talking with Stella, who is a friend of mine.  She told me about a younger colleague (GenZer) who "hijacked" a meeting.  Have you ever heard of anyone "hijacking" a meeting?  If you haven't, then have a listen to this episode.

I am revisiting an episode from March 2021.  The ME BOX is a great idea and thought I would share it with you again.  Enjoy!
