Our hearts go out to victims of the earthquake and several recent hurricanes, as well as those with families who were affected. Here are links to organizations accepting donations and actively aiding relief efforts.

When it comes to inspiring and empowering our teams, in every dialog people are taking cues in what we do and how we carry ourselves. If you can allow people to feel inspired by what you do, then you’ve empowered them. That doesn’t happen accidentally. Inspiring others doesn’t have to be about sharing our own stories and successes either. Most often, I’ve found that asking the right questions has the most potential to inspire, engage and empower others.

As a company, we are collecting relief packages for the victims of the recent hurricanes. Some employees do not wish to participate for various reasons. It is creating a bit of strife among employees. Is doing relief/volunteer work in the workplace discouraged?

Generation Z, or the iGeneration, is the cohort of individuals born between 1995 and 2010. The first of them are just graduating from college this year. They are a large generation – approximately 73 million strong – and don’t mistake them for their older Millennial counterparts. They are very, very different.
