Soft Leadership to Manage Generational Differences (Millennial) in Workplace

I led a workshop in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on 26th and 27th April 2017. This workshop is based on my upcoming book tentatively titled ‘Soft Leadership for Millennials: Leading Generational Differences in the Workplace Successfully.’ This workshop explores soft leadership to meet the rising expectations of the millennials globally. It unfolds the attitudes and actions of millennials who are often misunderstood globally for their personality and behaviour. It debunks myths about millennials with truths. It underscores their challenges and expectations. It compares and contrasts with other generations. It offers tools and techniques to inspire and engage millennials globally. It unveils the role of CEOs and leaders to bridge the generational differences. It explains how to inspire and engage millennials effectively. It illustrates with international leaders including Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr, Aung San Sui Kyi, Alexander the Great, Winston Churchill, Mother Teresa, Nelson Mandela, Dalai Lama and Booker T. Washington. It implores to celebrate the generational differences to achieve organizational excellence and effectiveness.
