Understanding Today's Generation: The Millenials
You have heard of Generation X, Generation Y and Baby Boomers. There is a new generation called the Millenials, and they are now of the marrying age. In order to best serve this new group of twenty-somethings, it’s important to understand where they are coming from.Millenials have a strong bond with the technological age. They were practically born with a mouse in their hands and understand text messaging and instant messaging (also known as IM’ing) better than many of us understand how to email. With their ease around a keyboard, they have a different mentality about interacting with people and within their relationships. Understanding this generation will help you be

Loyal Customers Take Commitment
In today’s competitive world of retail, many stores are implementing external marketing programs designed to attract new business.Unfortunately, the cost can be very high with little return on investment. What is often lost in the mix is the fact that it can be much more cost effective to have a loyal customer base that returns again and again rather than constantly seeking the next new customer. Not that there is anything wrong with new customers, but if that is you primary focus you may be missing a great opportunity with your existing clients. When you put attention on your current customers and they feel appreciated they tend to be more loyal. Loyal customers are o

One of the biggest dangers of each and every worker is violence in his workplace. Workplace violence is defined as any incident in which a person is abused, threatened or assaulted in a circumstances relating to their work. There are 2,000,000 acts of assault in the workplace yearly, not even counting rapes and sexual assault, or murder. And those are the acts of violence that are reported. Her are some ways to keep violence from happening.

Both the employer and the employee have an interest in reducing violence at work. For employers, violence can lead to poor morale and a poor image for the organization, making it difficult to recruit and keep staff. It can mean extra cost with absenteeism, higher insurance premiums and compensation payments. For employees, violence can cause pain, distress and even disability or death. Physical attacks are obviously dangerous but serious and persistent verbal abuse and threats can also damage an employees' health through anxiety and stress.

The Motivating Power of Purpose
Patrick Atkins is Senior Manager for Agency Training of a major insurance company. When people asked what he did for a living, he used to reply, ‘I sell life insurance’.In his second year of selling, a customer died in an accident and he went to visit the widow. She was distraught, of course, but she spoke to Patrick after the funeral.‘I always resented the money my husband spent on insurance,’ she said. ‘I thought it was wasted money that we could have used for something else. But now your insurance payment is going to allow my children to stay in school and give us enough money to keep living in this house. You’ve saved our family.’Today, when people as

The Night Worker
In the process of musing about our perennially awake world for my Social Psych blog, I started to think about our present work world and how its operations have changed the lives of millions of workers.I manage a 24/7 emergency crew (mental health). We handle callers from early evening until 7 AM, plus weekends and holidays. During the course of the night, we talk to hundreds of people from all walks of life. Until a few years ago (except for intermittent wartime production requirements), the people who worked through the night were limited to emergency services (police, fire, hospitals), the telephone company, a few booming manufacturing plants, and the military. Now

Is Your Company Ready for The Bird Flue Pandemic?
Many people believe it will never happen, that a Bird Flu Pandemic killing millions of people racing through the country cannot occur. Yet in recent history; the last 400 years there have countless incidents where pandemics have wiped out millions of people and very rapidly too. The United States has the best chance of many people surviving such an incredible pandemic, but we are not without risk.Many of the customs in the United States, such as shaking hands, kissing, etc can be problematic for spreading the Bird Flu Virus is a notable human strain develops and it very well could too.

Our employers are deeply concerned for out safety and the safety of our loved ones now more than ever due to the recent events of 9/11. However, before then American employers did little to protect workers from work place violence largely because they did not realize the magnitude of the problem because OHSA did not require them to take protective measures. NASP found that another reason employers failed to address the workplace violence problem was that safety professionals felt it was a security issue, while security professionals felt is was a safety issue. In most business and industry Human Resources provides the oversight for security and safety and so should logically serve as a bridge between them.

Effective workplace violence prevention programs are a great way to reduce workplace violence. These programs should include physical security, pre-employment screening, good termination practices, employee assistance programs, out placement and a host of other options. There are courses designed for securit
