Tim, your book was it Generation IY?

Was that the name of the book?

>> Yeah. >> I know you have a passion for

Millenials and their success in the work place as well.

And I'm just curious if you could pick a habit or two that you think

a millennial should focus on for them to be successful in their careers.

What would you advise them?

>> Well, we are passionate about this emerging generation.

The millennials, at least in our home country make up 51% of the work.

So it's the majority of the workforce already, they're young.

>> Yeah.

>> But very often as I mentioned,

we haven't always done a good job getting them ready.

>> Mm-hm. >> Even they're gifted and smart.

So one of the habitudes that I think is important for millennial to learn is one,

that we call puzzle pieces and box tops.

The question I was asked on this one is, have you ever tried to put one of those

gigantic 2,000 piece jigsaw puzzles together without the box top?

It's almost impossible.

because you got all these pieces and you look, looks like a tree.

Let's try, you know, I don't know.

The box top gives you the big picture.

And I believe one of the most important things we need to learn is we start our

careers is, I know my piece and

I think my piece is awesome but what I need to do is I need.

My employer often used to give me the box.

What's the big picture here?

How does my piece fit in?

Now the good news is you need my piece, I need to play my piece but

I'm not the deal.

I'm part of a bigger picture.

And I think our greatest fulfillment comes not when I'm the awesome central center of

attention but when I'm feeding into something much larger than me.

So that's a vital truth, you and I probably had to learn

when we were 20 years old but just vital today to learn that lesson.

>> Good is there another habitued you'd recommend for them?

>> Yeah absolutely, well one that I wish I would have learned early on

is actually in book one of our series but it's called the starving baker.

The starving baker is the baker that spends so much time baking bread for

others he forgets to eat and starves himself.

Is this not the number one occupational hazard of leadership?

I'm giving, giving, giving, serving service and it looks noble to do that.

It is noble, the problem is just like I need to lead myself before I lead others,

I need to feed myself before I feed others.

And so this is about a plan for

personal growth, life-long learning that you believe in.

>> Yeah.

>> So that when you're 40 and 50, and 60 you're still in the game,

still reinventing yourself because you have not starved the baker.

That's just vile to learn I think.

>> Hm, that's a great one.
