“Leaders today are faced with challenges they never experienced in their careers. Good businesses have gone bad, and the prospects for many businesses are not optimistic in 2010,” says Generational DNA Founder and President Dave Brookmire. “Leadership skills required to deal with “sick” or stalled businesses are very different than the skills utilized in a high growth business experienced in the 90’s and this decade. Coaching helps align the company’s goals to the managers’ job and provides the manager with an expert that has dealt with these issues in the past, providing wisdom, mentoring, direction, tools, and techniques to handle the new business realities. Our coaching process is bottom line focused, and a recent project with a Fortune 1000 company showed a 3.5:1 ROI for the coaching program.”
According to Brookmire, managers have not only been feeling the pressures of a down economy. In fact, the current business market, with a rapidly changing workforce makeup, has also presented additional challenges that today’s managers have not had to face on this scale. For example:
• The rapid exit of the Baby Boomers from the workforce is creating a growing knowledge gap, in which large pools of knowledge and experience are leaving companies faster than they can transfer it to younger leaders.
• The massive amounts of layoffs and cutbacks over the past couple of years have largely impeded managers’ abilities to properly mentor younger talent by increasing organizational instability.
• The influx of younger generations into the workforce, with diverse working behaviors, goals and preferences, has increased the challenges for managers working to build effective intergenerational communication and multigenerational teams.
“Managers need real, applicable strategies for moving out of the recession from seasoned professionals who understand their unique challenges and the proven methods for managing multiple generations, attracting and mentoring strong talent, and improving the efficiency of business critical communications and operations,”
