Is it true that the Millennials want it all and they want it fast?
Indeed! The Millennial wants the paycheck, the purpose in their everyday job, the work-life balance with a get rich quick offer, without leaving out the fun things of life! .

Of course getting quickly to the top of the career ladder is of priority for the Millenial, and undoubtedly, if your company is not giving them these things, then indeed they will move on to another that will!

Have a clear sense of purpose, and a clear- cut career ladder to allure the ambitious millennial! When the path to the top is too entangled or non-existent, then the job just became less appealing to the Millennial!

This month, our guest speaker is Mr. James Ngomeli, speaking on Understanding Office Politics.

Office Politics; no one likes it, others cringe at the thought of it. The reality is that companies are by nature political organizations, joining it is a political act, you must influence people all the time. It means if you want to survive and thrive at the workplace you can’t just sit on the sidelines. If you want to make an impact, like it or not you must be a player in the game. It doesn’t mean playing dirty but you must figure out how to influence those around you.

James has vast experience in leading over a 12,000 strong workforce organization (Kenya Power) through one of the largest change programs in Africa. This gave him a lot of insight in the complex process of change management. This coupled with his experience as a skillful marketer on brand development and consumer behavior was key in the success of the change program.

James is currently a Change management consultant, the Chief Energizing Officer at Brands and Beyond Ltd an Energy consultancy firm, Publisher of the ‘Watts Up’ Energy Magazine, Author of first fiction Children Book on electricity “Stima Series”, Chair of Chartered Institute of Marketing East Africa and Certified Pension Fund Trustee.
