Baby Boomers

Each #generation brings unique values to the workplace, and managers and leaders who understand, communicate, motivate, train, and retain multiple generations simultaneously are highly sought throughout the business community. You now know that #you are one of those leaders!

A multigenerational workforce leaves no one and nothing behind and this week, we continue the discussion by discovering the #BabyBoomer, a tireless group of workers who are not risk adverse.

What makes them tick

They are incredibly ambitious and understand self-worth.

How to motivate and reward them

The Boomers value career ambition and financial success; thus, the concept of work/life integration is a challenge. They enjoy insight into opportunities for career development. This willingness to assume risk allows them to serve in higher level positions and to share knowledge, skills, and abilities. Status symbols and promotions motivate the Boomers. They tend to take performance reviews as a necessary evil.

How to ensure that they are not left behind

Group decision-making is important; rigid management styles do not work to their advantage. Many are high achievers and willing to work long hours. Remember that they enjoyed status as the dominant generation in terms of numbers for quite some time and they are accustomed to shaping the workplace. The Boomers use a guarded communication style and are commanding thinkers and great leaders. They are thinking ahead and appreciate flexible working conditions, added benefits, and for some retirement, or preferment options. What’s preferment? #Preferment is remaining on the job as long as they like and not seeking an early retirement; it is their preference that drives their productivity.

Demographics define a generation, and generations enhance the workplace in multiple ways, including but certainly not limited to:

• Passion for corporate culture
• Commitment to inclusivity
• Shared respect
• Increased outputs
• Competitive spirit
• Improvements in engagement and morale
• Enhanced retention rates

Do multiple generations enhance or inhibit teamwork? Without a doubt, a multigenerational workforce is more flexible and encourages input from many team members. They are innovative and creative, leaving no one and nothing behind. Isn’t that what we all need and want—a workforce that is collaborative, promotes ideation and recognizes its members?

Yes, there are five #generations in the workplace!

Who are they?
• Traditionalists
• Baby Boomers
• Generation X
• Generation Y
• Generation Z

We know that each generation brings unique values to the workplace and that managers and leaders who understand, communicate, motivate, train, and retain multiple generations simultaneously are highly sought throughout the business community. Are #you one of those leaders?

A multigenerational workforce leaves no one and nothing behind. Let’s start by exploring the TRADITIONALISTS, who are the “comeback kids” of today. A growing number of seasoned workers have postponed retirement to return to work. Think about how they were raised; a typical traditionalist was told to be seen and not heard, was held to the “rule of the road/household” and was goal-driven. I say typically because I, for one, was not typical. There were no “rules” in my house growing up; along with my siblings, we raised ourselves, and yes, we were goal-driven, although each of our respective goals was different. For LinkedIn, we’ll generalize, knowing full well that many of you are also atypical.

What makes them tick?

Comfortable with conformity, they may be concerned about not pulling their weight due to unfamiliarity with technology. You may be surprised; they have the proverbial 10-year-old in their lives who can bring them up to par. They have a strong work ethic and are company-driven.

How to motivate and reward them

Known for loyalty and a willingness to help others, they are motivated by job titles and corresponding compensation. Positive feedback and performance reviews drive loyalty.

How to ensure that they are not left behind

They may find today’s workplace too casual and less formal. Provide opportunities for face-to-face conversations and recognize that they still “pick up the phone.” Engage them by recognizing their knowledge and experience; offer internal mentorship programs that allow the traditionalists to share their wisdom.

Top five tips for managing this group and your entire multigenerational workforce:

  1. Communicate using a variety of tools
  2. Recognize that at all times, everyone is both student and teacher
  3. Acknowledge expertise, ideation, and initiative
  4. Assemble diverse teams based on skills sets and not age
  5. Embrace your people and their purpose by celebrating differences and valuing the individual

CareLinx by Sharecare introduces clinical advisory board of national nursing leaders

I was ahead of my time and on the cutting-edge of homecare long before the concept became popular.  I was ahead of my time and developed diverse homecare programs for the VNA of Dallas, TransMed Division of HCA, a Medical-School based outpatient clinic, and multiple acute care hospitals. Now, I am again ahead of the game by aligning with @carelinxbysharecare as a member of the newly-appointed #clinicaladvisoryboard. 

Peruse the announcement below, and join me in congratulating the other members of our new board, each of whom will contribute to growth, care delivery, outcomes, and safety. #carelinx IS the CUTTING EDGE, and I am so proud to be involved!

ATLANTA – April 26, 2022 – Sharecare (Nasdaq: SHCR), the digital health company that helps people manage all their health in one place, today announced the creation of a clinical advisory board for its home health platform and network of caregivers, #CareLinx by Sharecare.

Composed of nursing leaders representing private practice, academia, government, the private sector, and the military, the board will provide strategic advice on how to equip nurse-caregivers with the tools, resources, and community support to sustain a rewarding career in home health. As the increasingly complex care needs of an aging population meet a nursing workforce that is projected to experience high turnover in the coming years, these experts will help Sharecare’s home health business foster a rewarding workplace culture for highly qualified professionals at all levels of nursing by offering expanded support with licensing, training, networking, continuing education, content, and more.

“The nursing leaders who make up CareLinx by Sharecare’s new clinical advisory board represent some of the most respected talent in the industry, and we’re excited to have them join us as we position ourselves as a key partner to support nurses in developing fulfilling career paths,” said Sherwin Sheik, head of home health at Sharecare. “Building on our recent growth, we’re committed to creating a community that will empower our caregivers, help them develop as professionals and, in turn, provide exceptional high-touch clinical care to our members.”

In addition to its focus on recruitment and retention, the board will help shape CareLinx by Sharecare’s clinical care offering, ensuring the development of tech-enabled home care plans are informed by the highest-quality evidence and latest best practices.

“The expertise, thoughtfulness, and influence of CareLinx by Sharecare’s clinical advisory board are critical resources as we strive to create a home for the exceptional nursing talent of today and tomorrow,” said Donna Hill Howes, RN, MS, Sharecare’s chief nursing officer. “Representing all levels of nursing and an array of sectors, our board members bring a wealth of experience that will put CareLinx by Sharecare on the cutting edge of delivering care in the home.”

The members of the board are:

With an exclusive offering for AARP members and key partnerships with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs through the Elizabeth Dole Foundation and several of the largest health plans in the U.S., over 1.5 million Medicare Advantage members have access to CareLinx by Sharecare for free through their health plans.

I invite you to discover #carelinxbysharecare and partner with us to ensure best practices, an engaged nursing workforce, and great outcomes!

I’m speaking at the 2021 HBA Annual Conference #HBAAC21!

I’m excited to present Great Leaders are Great Negotiators at the 2021 Healthcare Businesswomen’s Association (HBA) Annual Conference this November. #HBAAC21 promises to offer its attendees data-driven and empowering opportunities to:

  • Reimagine pathways to a more equitable and inclusive workplace
  • Build on expanded concepts of advocacy and allyship to engage in mutually beneficial relationships
  • Apply insights from promising and proven practices to champion diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I) in their spheres of influence
  • Expand strategies that enhance one’s presence, visibility, and performance for advancement in an evolving workplace
  • Strengthen an invaluable network of advocates and accomplices

Join me and other inspiring industry leaders at #HBAAC21 for an interactive virtual experience. Be invigorated and inspired that, together, we can reimagine pathways to a more equitable and inclusive workplace. https://bit.ly/3yHHhOA

First of all, what business are we in? We are in the business of negotiation, which is nothing more than communication with different starting positions, a principle that remains the same.  We still must begin with the end in mind!  Our process may be different in a virtual world but we are still sharing/selling products, ideas, or ourselves.

That takes 3 steps; preparation, delivery, and education…

Preparation – mindset impacts how we present ourselves

Delivery – brings positive energy; if virtual –it is what you bring through the screen, not to the screen – consider standing up to channel your energy

Education – add stories to connect and generate emotion

Let the process and the conference begin! Bring it on…and keep your cool!
