Millennials are not a mistake. What are perceived as entitlement actions, desires, and motivations to older generations in the workplace are actually the skills needed in the workplace NOW!. Millennials were prepared to work in jobs that had not yet been invented; and that day has arrived!! It is time for Millennial purpose to be revealed and severely tested; our survival as a Western culture with a free market business environment depend on their success. Unleash the Millennials and Save the World. Two major culture AGE shifts initiated over fifty years ago and accelerated by the global COVID-19 pandemic will reach peak manifestation in the workplace by 2025. Left unchecked, the full shift manifestation may inalterably change Western culture and business, greatly reduce individual talent freedom and privacy, and severely curtail workplace creativity and innovation. Millennials will soon become Superheroes of lore to future generations for rescuing the workplace and Western culture from demise. Unleash the Millennials and Save the World. Millennials now make-up 50% of the workforce in the U.S. and by 2025 they will make-up 75% of the workforce globally. The decision makers for handling shift manifestations in the workplace as we approach 2025 will not be Boomers or Xers, they will be Millennials. The major AGE shifts are philosophical and business model paradigm. Either shift alone is a paramount obstacle to overcome and because of the global pandemic - possibly cataclysmic. Combined and synthesized the consequence of these two Age shifts can be catastrophic. Unleash the Millennials and Save the World. Belief in Western philosophic principles for discovering universal and/or transcendent truth and knowability ended in the 1950's. Today's Postmodernism says there is nothing true or knowable so discovery of a universal and/or transcendent truth is impossible and unknowable; stop looking. Millennials were totally raised, educated, and culturally indoctrinated as postmodern thinkers. Imagine Millennial business leaders as they negotiate contracts and trade practices united in the belief nothing true or knowable exists beyond what is locally accepted. What kind of business practices would be expected for those outside the local collective? Unleash the Millennials and Save the World. By 2025 the transformation of our generally accepted business model paradigm from the Industrial Age to the Connected Age will culminate with the entry of artificial intelligence (AI) into the workplace. The entrance of AI is going to be dramatic to those businesses not prepared to seamlessly shift major portions of their workload from humans to smart machines. The cost to consumer savings across every business sector are going to be so dramatic that businesses not ready will never survive. Think Kodak, Best Buy, and Borders Books for those not ready for a shift. Think Amazon on steroids in your business sector for what is coming. Unleash the Millennials and Save the World. Fortunately, the hard work has been done to identify the root cause of what is coming and the fix to avoid a cataclysm in your workplace. This book is based upon extensive research into Millennials in the workplace and enhancing their engagement, productivity, and loyalty (EPL). The keys to maximizing EPL in the workplace are vocational development, career path advancement, and work/life balance. This book reveals the generations in the workplace; uncovers the root culture shift issues; identifies a coaching process for maximizing EPL in the workplace; provides specific ideas for reestablishing truth and knowability in the workplace for unleashing millennial talent; and takes a look at what the future may bring. Serendipitously with developing a process for optimizing workplace EPL, it was also discovered how Millennials optimized for EPL easily identify life meaning, purpose, and vocational calling. Unleash the Millennials and Save the World.
