In an article that appeared recently in Talent Management magazine Stephanie Klein asks what these people have in common:
Amazon.com CEO Jeff Bezos, British Prime Minister Tony Blair, President Bill Clinton, Katie Couric, Johnny Depp, Tom Hanks, Apple CEO Steve Jobs, Michael Jordan, Madonna, Brad Pitt, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Steven Spielberg, Jon Stewart, Donald Trump, Denzel Washington and Oprah Winfrey.
The answer? Well, this “diverse group of entrepreneurs, politicians and entertainers” are all high performers and for another, they’re all baby boomers. As the basis for a piece that suggests employers couldn’t do better than to recruit and retain knowledgeable, experienced, motivated boomers.
I cannot fault the logic of her argument. Can you? After all, a lot of people aged between 42 and 60 have a work ethic American business is banking on. Boomers too.
