What Do You Need To Know About Millennials?

Generation y aka Millennials were born after 1982 and are in your
workforce now. The Millennial Paradox - This new generation entering
the workforce brings every company to a crisis point, introducing
both dangers and exciting opportunities.
Will you act now and treat them as an upgrade or install them into
your existing systems and hope they don't crash them?

Our team at N2Millennials not only understands Millennials, we like them!

small businesses, churches, parents and educators understand and
connect with the Millennial Generation (Generation Y)

What Makes Millennials So Different? Millennials Are the Key Resources
Featured in Our "ACE Challenge"

Millennials are the new generation of workers born after 1982. They
have grown up with personal computers, cable, music videos, video
games and now search engines as daily interfaces. This has created
actual physical changes in the way their brains work, revealed by
functional M.R.I.'s.

Why Does Everyone Want to "Fix" Them?

Parents, educators and employers often perceive them as disloyal,
apathetic, dysfunctional, illiterate, unwilling to be trained and
refusing to be scheduled or instructed with traditional methods.

What is being observed is actually their ability to think in
non-linear ways, their early recognition of corporate and
educational "games" and that they see no need to be "educated" when
the information they need is constantly changing and a click or two
away.

Why Do They Have So Much Potential?

They have been dubbed "Crash Test Geniuses©" because they aren't
afraid to "reboot" and learn faster from failure than anything else.
This means that they feel no guilt about walking off the job if it
doesn't seem to be working.

It also means that they can and will take on market shifts,
innovative problem solving and product creation without the fear of
failure that paralyzes previous generations.

Where Can They Do the Most Damage?

The number one factor in improving the customer's experience and
satisfaction is hiring and keeping the best employees. High employee
turnover is a common complaint about Millennials. Losing customers
is more costly than all forms of internal losses combined and
employees will never do more for the customer than managers are
doing for them. Add the high cost of training using traditional
methods and you have a perfect storm scenario.

Millennials Are Our Specialty And We Create Powerful Solutions Designed To
Make Your Company A "Best Place To Work" For Everyone

You don't have a choice anymore whether or not you will hire
Millennials, they are the 100 million strong generation entering the
workforce and they are distinctly different than previous generations.
You still have choices that will impact both your bottom line and
corporate relevance:
Millennials are full of energy, creativity and innovative solutions.

Ignore the differences? Watch your attrition rate skyrocket and
customer service ratings plunge.

Take the stance that they are "broken" and attempt to "fix" them with
more rules and oversight? They are "game masters" and if they stay,
they feel compelled to beat your game or worse, to crash your system.

Upgrade?This generation is capable of quantum leap innovations and
incredible process streamlining because they track, analyze and think
in multiple layers. They have experience since childhood in forming
global teams and complex networks to accomplish goals using online
video and computer game systems.

Where Do We Start?

The N2Millennials team does a detailed observation and evaluation of
your company or workgroup. Our primary discovery tools are Social
Network Analysis and Root Cause Analysis. These reveal the internal
matrix of people, relationships and procedures that directly impact
behavior, employee retention, productivity, customer service and
profitability.

What Is Social Network Analysis? Free Video - Approximately 17 minutes

Using these metrics, we create a specific, detailed plan and set up
meetings and recommendations to start the upgrade.

Measurable Results

Our previous customers have experienced reduction in voluntary turnover
by no less than 50% within the first 90 days of implementing our
recommended upgrades.
This is accomplished without increasing compensation or recurring
costs.
Social Network Analysis and Root Cause Analysis Processes Are Designed
to Make Sure You Retain Key Employees

Not Just Retention - Preserving Tenure Equity

Keeping more people is not the only objective. Ensuring that you keep
people with the highest levels of experience, key internal
relationships and who have the ability to work with complex processes
is critical.
This means that keeping your very best employees is a focus as we
analyze your company.

Do we have all the answers?

No, but we do have over 10 years experience dealing with Fortune 500
companies, many of which are repeat clients. This is because they
experience measurable results and also because we are continually
learning and looking for new and better ways to enhance the tremendous
potential Millennials bring to the workforce.
We don't offer simplistic, "magic bullet", buzzword fixes. Real results
come from real changes in group dynamics and systems, not catchy
slogans and pep rally seminars.
We also facilitate on-going learning experiences that help get new team
members up to speed and communicate what we are learning from research
and from other success oriented companies. Books, e-courses,
newsletters, articles and blogs are ways we build feedback into keeping
your team upgraded.

Training Solutions for Corporations and Large Organizations

Bridging the Gap Between Analysis and Implementation is Critical to
Achieve High Performance

Our team and our systems are designed to keep the needs of the
corporation and its shareholders, management, team leaders, employees
and the customers in sight. Solutions are created to increase employee
retention, maximize Tenure Equity and improve productivity,
profitability and customer satisfaction.

Measurable results are a focus. Since we use data and analysis to
reveal problems, the same measurements are used to show improvements
over time. In order to implement these new strategies, we not only
brief the executive team, we incorporate group workshops and seminars
for managers and team leaders.

When the objective is to create a strong Social Network within the
organization that creates a great place for everyone to work and
increased profitability, it is essential that front line managers and
executives are initiators and supporters of change.

Group Training For Management and Executives

These classes review the current state of the company's Social Network,
the efficiency of information and resource sharing, where the critical
hubs and connectors within the organization are and what can be done to
support and reward these key employees that may not be represented on
the organizational chart - but are essential team members.

Training in Acknowledgment and programs to improve interactions with
Millennials, recruiting and employee retention strategies are also a
part of the customized system created after we "do the math" and map
the network.

Online and Webinar Based Corporate Training

Webinars Combine the Interaction and Flexibility of a Conference Call
with the Multi-Media Information of a Traditional Presentation

Using an internet connection, Webinars can be accessed live or reviewed
at your convenience from our archive. We offer private Corporate
Webinars to securely present and discuss the issues we are consulting
with your company on.

Classes designed to train all employees in how to create a culture of
Trust and Acknowledgment are highly effective in reducing turnover and
increasing profitability.

For Entrepreneurs, small businesses and professionals, we offer Public
Webinars that cover topics of interest for ongoing education. Sign up
for our Newsletter to see announcements of upcoming Public Webinars on
a variety of topics.

Executive MBA Program Classes

We work with several educational institutions to bring our research and
strategies on enhancing corporate profitability, productivity and
social networks to Executive MBA Programs. These courses are sometimes
offered ala carte to local executive teams if they have colleagues in
the program.

Please contact Kathryn Booth if you would like to see our curriculum
for supplemental classes and workshops for your MBA program.

The Consulting Team at N2Millennials offers a unique blend of Statistical and
Fiscal Analysis that measure and design solutions for three key aspects of
your corporation or organization.
Corporate Leadership and the Workforce - Employee Retention

Overall Performance Measures - Increasing Shareholder Value

Customer Retention and Improving Customer Service

Our solutions are based on years of experience with a wide variety of
corporations, all of whom have had serious issues with employee
retention, preserving Tenure Equity, and difficulties providing quality
customer service.

The Millennial workforce responds differently to training and policies
than previous generations and many employers and executives are
frustrated with their attitudes and behaviors.

Measurement, Accountability and Results

Key team members have Forensic Accounting, CIO and CPA backgrounds that
give us a distinct insight and focus on solutions that really make
sense and have a measurable impact on the bottom line and shareholder
value.

Increasing productivity and profitability are side effects of creating
positive dynamics in the workplace, improving team interactions and
training and reducing turnover among new employees and highly
experienced older employees.

Ongoing Progress

We create an emphasis on continuing education and follow-up. This means
that we have more accountability and aren't just running in and
offering some kind of feel good, buzzword du jour tactics we think
might be a good idea. On the contrary, we work with your team to create
evolving solutions that take commitment, communications, trust and
respect for other team members.

Because of this, we have a policy of reviewing whether or not we
believe our team can make a measurable difference before we agree to a
consulting contract.

Scott Degraffenreid, our lead consultant has an unblemished record of
producing significant reductions in employee turnover and increasing
productivity in hundreds of companies.

Frequently asked questions:

Where can I get paperback copies of the books?

as well as the first printing of "Understanding the Millennial Mind: A
Menace or Amazing?" are available through the site and other venues
now. Product Catalog

Do you have Audiobook versions of the books?

audio versions of the eCourses that include a workbook. Product Catalog

Why don't you call Millennials "Generation Y"?
Generation Y was coined by a generational "expert" who was punning
"Generation Why?" which is offensive to Millennials. It also implies
that there Millennials are the next version of Generation X - which
they are clearly and markedly not similar to.

We hired a "Generational Consultant" and they suggested parties, awards
and basically acting like "Mr. Rogers" or a TV psychologist to pacify
our Millennial team members. What do you do that is different?
Our strategies and actual consulting work are based on science, math
and measurement of actual behavior...not anecdotal observations or
opinions.

There are clear patterns of behavior that cause Millennials to quit and
to cause "problems" (aka Millennial Issues) - there are also clear
patterns of behavior that channel their unique capabilities, increase
profitability and create a better place to work for all employees, not
just the Millennials.

We pay a lot of attention to Tenure Equity and making sure that all
employees are motivated and benefit.

Why do they wear their pants halfway down or hanging off their butts?
This is addressed in our course, but here is a partial explanation -
First - they express a lot of individuality through the wide variety of
underwear exposed...
Also - they know it irritates older people and that amuses them.

Enter your search keyword(s) and the keyword "zorgium" into the search input field of http://bing.com, http://yahoo.com or http://google.com.

Heads up: There's an ongoing spamdexing of Google searchbot algorithms. Sites that are 'copies of copies' and cloaked sites which include Zorgium keywords presented to search engine crawlers yet garbage content presented to human visitors were hosted on thousands of IP addresses and domains registered immediately after the introduction of Zorgium in November of 2009. The Hostgator/'The Planet'/Softlayer datacenters in Texas seem to be the epicenter of this activity in conjunction with anonymously registered domains of various TLD's but primarily .info domains at Godaddy which, in our opinion, has some sort of connection to the domains of goldmint.in and goldmint.org. Google has begun to notice this and has begun to lower the ranking of these sites and put our original sites back on top of the search rankings. These actions, as far as we can tell, negatively impact the use of the keyword 'zorgium' as a search term and provided little benefit, if any, to the perpetrators.

ZORGIUM note to content providers: If you don't want your page to appear in Zorgium's search abstraction then put an exclusion for "Zorgium" in your web server's robots.txt file.
