“Leaders aren’t born they are made. And they are made just like anything else, through hard work. And that’s the price we’ll have to pay to achieve that goal, or any goal.”
Vince Lombardi

Recently, I read a column by Daniel Kadlec in USA Today about the baby boomer transformation from being a “Me Generation” to a “We Generation.” Although I applaud Kadlec’s insight, we must wait to see if this generation follows through on his claim about baby boomers now being unselfish. As a scholar and practitioner, I have closely watched the demographic shifts in America. Are baby boomers now transformed into “We Generation” leaders?

For every job there is room to improve work conditions. For every job there are several co-workers who will complain but never do a thing, to that one who speaks up and makes things better…or not. At the very least, they have tried. One of the most important jobs in America, in my mind anyway, is the United States Postal Service. In Ronald Williams, Jr.’s book, “Deep Inside LiteBlue,” he discusses the inside scene of the USPS, and the typical challenges that are dealt with. Many of these things are just as readily occurring in nearly any job you could think of. Williams’ experience is more relatable than you might imagine.
