I have just come across Peter Sheahan’s research blog, focusing on Generation Y and the workplace. Peter’s an entrepreneurial Gen Yer living in Sydney, Australia. He’s made a mark with his business that helps members of Gen Y and leaders of large companies work together more effectively. His book, Generation Y: Thriving (and Surviving with Generation Y at Work) was published last month.

Peter’s Workshop topics are:
1. The Y Factor - Thriving (and Surviving) with Generation Y in the Workplace
2. Cracking the Talent Code - Turning your Potential into Profit
3. Building a Profitable Personal Brand -Stand out from the Competition by building the Brand called YOU!
4. Creating Mind Blowing Customer Experiences

Aqualung blogs about attending Peter’s workshop on Gen Y in the workplace. He wonders if Gen Y are exclusive holders of the cutting edge approaches to work that Peter’s talking about. After all, Aqualung says, Tom Peters (Boomer) and Davd St Lawrence (pre-Boomer) are advocating similar paradigm shifts. David comments that every generation of workers has its share of spoilt whingers, hard workers and entrepreneurs.

I’ll post a review of Peter’s book as soon as I can get hold of it and read it!
