The text of the article is here for you to share.
The first paragraph is here…
Millennials think they are unique. Just ask one. However, throughout history there have always been population surges after wars, diseases and migrations. So, what makes the current population of millennials, born in the U.S. between 1981-1996, truly unique? They represent over 75 million people, 25% of the U.S. population, a larger population surge than the post-war Baby Boom, 30% of the voting age, more diversity than any previous generation, and about 50% of today’s workforce (see Brookings.edu). These millennials are uniquely qualified to use new tools such as digital technology to communicate, social media platforms to influence consumers and public opinions, graphic images and visual memes, ethnic and racial diversity to describe more inclusive perspectives. The result is massive impact from countless millennials in every workplace and business sector. Examples include social protests, outrage, political discord, lawsuits, reputational attacks. Millennials are agile learners who demand to speak and be heard. That fact requires that learning managers and leaders respond differently than ever.

22 simple habits that separate high achievers from everyone else…
The Inc magazine article is here.
The text from me is:
Practice leadership. Just as attorneys practice law, leaders need to practice leadership. Great leaders influence others toward a better future. Leadership requires public optimism. Narcissism. Confidence. Practice, and more practice. Every day I identify the top 8-10 people I need to influence. They may be clients, colleagues, prospects, friends, loved ones. Then I write their names on my list and practice leadership. Some require a phone call, others need a direct meeting. All on my daily target list need to know that they are important to me and my business. When I practice leadership daily, then I stay focused on my objective of being a leading provider of outcome-based leadership development solutions. You can practice leadership daily.

JOIN THE OKR LEADERSHIP PROJECT TODAY
TO: Objectives and Key Results (OKR) practitioners/ leaders/ managers
FR: Doug Gray, PhD, PCC
Goal of the OKR leadership project:
Invite practitioners/ leaders/ managers in any-sized organization to share digital stories of HOW you are applying OKRs individually and organizationally.
Assumptions:
- Leaders practice leadership. We can all be better leaders.
- We can leverage technology and our organizations. We can use technology to share stories of how OKR leadership can transform individuals and teams.
- OKR Leadership matters. When we model relationships that matter, then we increase awareness and learning for other individuals and teams.
Background:
After consulting hundreds of leaders and managers about OKR leadership one theme stands clear. Marketing the value of using OKRs is NOT well defined. Market confusion abounds. This OKR Leadership Project is one initiative to help anyone at any level describe HOW you are applying OKRs individually and organizationally in our global marketplace. Join us?
Process:
(a) share this invitation broadly with other OKR practitioners, (b) schedule a 30-minute session with Doug Gray here or at https://actionlearnin.wpengine.com/ (c) receive the calendar confirmation link and reserve that time in your calendar, (d) prepare your responses to the 5-6 questions below, (e) download https://zoom.us/ software and learn how to use Zoom software on YouTube, if needed, (f) at our scheduled time, Doug will record 5-10 minutes of our video session using the link at https://zoom.us/j/3432485703 (g) Doug will send your MP4 recording to you for your distribution, (h) Doug may post our recording on https://www.youtube.com/user/dgrayful/videos with this invitation to be included in the OKR leadership project.
Possible questions:
- Self-introduction: Who are you, what do you do, where are you located, do you have a website or invitation to share with others?
- Definition: OKR leadership can be defined as a management methodology that helps people focus activity on the same important issues throughout an organization. Some people focus on internal teams (small or large, formal or informal), some people are external practitioners, and some people focus on self-development. How do you typically define OKR leadership?
- Interests: What attracts you to the science or practice of OKR leadership?
- Clients: Who do you typically serve in your OKR leadership work? Please share 2-3 of your examples/ case studies/ successful experiences applying objectives and key results.
- Trends: What trends or market opportunities do you see in the future for OKR leadership, technology or management consulting?
- Referrals: Who else can you refer who (a) is applying OKR leadership with others and (b) may be willing to be included in this OKR leadership project?
How can you help? Share this invitation broadly.
Thank you in advance for your participation.
