Purpose:

Introduce the generations: who they are, how they view the world of work, and which factors shaped their values and perspective. Includes management principles that can be effectively used in recruiting, motivating, and retaining generational employees.

Frank said in an interview: "Actually, in age, I am a Boomer, but I was accepted and adopted by Gen X and Gen Y groups with open arms because I made the commitment to learn about them. I used the principle from The Art of War by Sun Tzu - First we seek to understand. Then was able to connect with Gen X and Y.And to borrow a line from Sir Paul McCartney (who was in a band before Wings . . .) It's a Magical Mystery Tour! Or to borrow from Jerry Garcia and the Grateful Dead, What a long strange trip it's been. And it was well worth it!"

With approximately 49 million text-messaging, blue-toothing, Mohawk wearing, DVRing, Blackberry, multi-taskers, we all need to understand, learn, accept and adapt.

OK, so Gen X is 49 million, and the younger Generation Y, or Millennials, are 73 million strong and even more tech savvy than any other generation. They are the future, and we need to understand and connect with them at their speed.

If you think I'm wrong, just watch a teenager play a video game - any video game. And if you really want to feel old, just challenge the kid to a round. As computers become faster and more powerful, the games, applications and life in general has the potential to become more complex and interactive.

Your talk on the Carnival Cruise Ship, SS Ecstasy was great. You did it just the way we wanted it. When you made the point about looking past first impressions and looking for the good in everyone and having the right attitude . . . it was the prefect way to tie it all together. The entire group loved your show. Thanks so much. Gary Tharaldson. - Fargo, N.D.
