Through the use of research analysis, common sense, and practical wisdom, Jeanne provides us with a roadmap for successfully navigating the difficult and challenging terrain of inter-generational leadership. This book is a "must read" for leaders looking to understand how to work creatively with different generations." Kathleen Thompson, PhD, MSW, RSW, BA (Hons) "If you have ever complained about the 'young kids' in your workplace and their lack of a 'work ethic', I highly recommend Jeanne Martinson's new book. It's a simple and easy read that clearly explains why these 'young kids' are the way they are and why it is such a big deal for those of us who are simply young at heart. With the very specific instructions, Jeanne's book will become your everyday reference on how to manage a diverse workforce."
