23、y voice in their head. Youre looking at it and it feels like someones over your shoulder talking in your ear, as opposed to someone at the blackboard, which is distant from you,” he said. When Springfield High School in Palo Alto, California invited Khan to speak in person - he immediately connected

24、 to the students there. The idea of short lessons that can be played over and over again attracted high school senior Bridget Meaney.

25、 the idea of learning something in class but then going back and pressing pause or rewind and actually getting a deeper understanding of it.” Originally, Khan kept his lessons short because of YouTube restrictions.

Someone - specifically the father-daughter team of Larry and Meagan Johnson - has figured out that on some Americ

32、an job sites, five generations are working side by side. In their new book about generations in the workplace the pair argue that while such an age difference adds a lot of texture and a variety of life experiences, it can also bring tensions and conflicts. The Johnsons are human-resource trainers a

33、nd public speakers. Dad Larry is a former health-care executive; daughter Meagan is a onetime high-level sales manager. Here are the oldest and youngest of the five generations they identify: They call the oldest group Traditionals, born before 1945. They were heavily influenced by the lessons of th

34、e Great Depression and World War Two. They respect authority, set a high standard of workmanship, and communicate easily and confidently. But theyre also stubbornly independent. They want their opinions heard. At the other extreme are what the Johnsons call Linksters, born after 1995 into todays mor

36、cream stores. The Johnsons, Larry and Meagan, represent a generation gap themselves in their work with jobsite issues. The Johnsons point is that as the average lifespan continues to rise and retirement dates get delayed because of the tight economy, people of different generations are working side

37、by side, more often bringing with them very different ideas about company loyalty and work values. The five generations are heavily influenced by quite different events, social trends, and the cultural phenomena of their times. Their experiences shape their behavior and make it difficult, sometimes,

38、 for managers to achieve a strong and efficient workplace. Larry and Meagan Johnson discuss all this in greater detail in a new book, “Generations, Inc.: From Boomers to Linksters - Managing the Friction Between Generations at Work,” published by Amacom Press, which is available in all good bookstor

She spoke as if she did not want to cause him any more trouble. “What do you want to do, Mr. Carr ” The womans

48、 calm and gentle manner disarmed the once-angry store-owner. “I was going to get a cop. But I dont want to be cruel. Tell your son not to come back here again, and Ill let it go.” Then he warmly shook Mrs. Higginss hand. Mrs. Higgins thanked the old man for his kindness, then mother and son left. They walked along the street in silence. When they arrived home his mother simply said, “Go to bed, you fool.” In his bedroom, Alfred heard his mother in the kitchen. He felt no shame, only pride in his mothers actions. “She was smooth!” he thought. He went to the kitchen to tell her how gr
