Written in a highly accessible (and often witty) style, this groundbreaking book addresses a number of generational issues. Deal provides a description of each issue, a summary of the relevant research results, a principle that can be applied to resolve (or at least mitigate) the issue, and practical advice for applying the principle in the workplace. Applying these principles will help everyone to work with, work for, attract, manage, retain, and develop leaders of all generations.
Thinking about cultural differences around the world isn't just an
intellectual exercise for managers working in an increasingly
global environment. Being able to communicate effectively across
cultural differences, understanding how to negotiate complex social
situations, and being familiar with the customs and norms of many
cultures are important skills in organizations today. Perhaps even
more important than possessing those essential pieces of cultural
knowledge is the skill of cultural adaptability--the willingness
and ability to recognize, understand, and work effectively across
cultural differences.
Failure rate for senior executives is high; consider the frequent stories in the press about yet another CEO who has been fired or has resigned prematurely. Hypothesizing that the selection process is inadequate, CCL researchers used the Peak Selection Simulation to ask 621 decision-makers specific questions about how they use interviews, HR information, and search firm reports to select top-level candidates. This report, containing thirty figures and tables and a comprehensive reference list, documents this research and provides useful insights that can lead to better selection outcomes.
