“Ramp up your efforts to mentor Millennials for leadership roles in your business.” – Danita Bye

  Charlie is the President of a technology company and Millennials make up 35% of his current workforce.  After completing the Millennial Survey, he sent me a very encouraging message as it aligns 100% with my Next-Gen leadership development recommendations. Charlie is purposefully proactive in developing the leadership qualities of his up-and-coming team, so that they will help build his company.  Why is this so important? Researchers project that nearly 80 percent of current business leaders and CEOs will retire within the next ten years.[1]  Each one will take with them decades of experience and wisdom. What is your transition strategy to ensure your company will continue to reap the rewards of the blood and sweat you’ve invested over the years? [1] It's Time To Retire Retirement

“Your sales coaching will help the next generation to become assets to your business.” - Danita Bye
  How are you tapping into the brilliance of your up-and-coming Millennial sales leader to boost your sales growth?  Or, are you leaving them feeling unsettled and unsure of their next step up the sales leadership ladder? Starting in the early 2020s, Millennials are going to drive our economy, and they will continue to do so for thirty years. Since that is the case, the Millennial you are coaching and mentoring right now will be a key asset to the continual growth of your business. How might you empower your up-and-coming sales leader as the competitive edge for your business?

“Accountability means having the emotional maturity and internal backbone to take responsibility for your own actions and choices, and not shift blame to external factors.” ~ Danita Bye

Is a lack of accountability the root cause for your lagging sales results? 1966 saw the emergence of the fictional movie trio, starring Clint Eastwood as ‘the Good’, Lee Van Cleef as ‘the Bad’ and Eli Wallach as ‘the Ugly.’ I regularly encounter this destructive trio in the world of Sluggish Sales Results… Low Accountability and his co-stars, Blame Game and Victim Mode can wreak havoc with your best sales strategies. Is your emerging sales leader acting out one of these roles?

Does your Millennial have clarity about his or her role to boost your business and sales growth efforts, or are they confused? In writing Millennials Matter, I interviewed Brandon Schaefer, the CEO of Five Capitals Brandon’s recommendations for business owners to build our next generation of leaders, confirms my research about Millennials.
