In this blog, I will concentrate the platters for the Gen X, Y and Z.

Gen X when compared to Gen Y (millennial), Gen Y are less open to change, low on creativity and adaptability but high on team playing. Gen x are at the level of leaders and managers. Gen X need to understand Gen Y (Millennial) to get the best out of them. Gen Y is more individualistic, they are open to change, and they are creative, adaptable but less on team playing. Therefore, in an environment of today, it is essential for the Gen X to understand the talents of Gen Y individually and lead them to success.

Here are the La Carte for each generation, based of Strengths Based Development.



After taking the StrengthsFinder Tests, professionals of Gen Y, can undergo exercise on Team Playing (PANCHTATVA) which will imbibe in them how to work in a team to achieve the organisational goals. Learn how to prioritise, how to work in diverse environments and how to make a team magnet. They all think that they are the best when they work individually but they are wrong, as they never tried working as part of a collaborative and interdependent team.
“Last three sessions were very impressive. The sessions were on team development. I have realised in my earlier times that I am very unproductive when it comes to working in a team. I am a person who likes to work alone. But these sessions were very helpful in developing an ability in working with colleagues in me. Team development sessions helped me socialise with my team members. I found it very effective in making friends. I now realize that I can be good when it comes to working with multiple member of people”…………. remarked Bernice Easo, one of my students who underwent Ex- PANCHTATVA.


 Gen X, take the StrengthsFinder Test, undergo Team Exercise. Expose their Strengths to all of their subordinates and finally undergo Leadership Exercise (CHAMATKAR) which will make them understand and rehearse in a natural way that how their Five Themes will play dominant role in ushering in an era of trust, compassion, stability and hope. How to leverage the talents of the team to achieve the organisational as well as personal goals of all their employees?


Gen Z, are those born after 1995. Mostly still in colleges and universities and are yet to join the workforce. They are all looking for the job opportunity where there is scope for growth. They want stability in life; striving for a job with full engagement and satisfaction ie they like to enjoy what they work; they prefer flexible work environment; a friendly work environment not a bossy supervisor but a collaborative mentor and of course the best grade of salary. The platter for them is full 45 hours of Personality Development in which they will know who they are; how can they achieve their goals, how to work in a team and how to be a leader who can “ achieve their goals by getting the willing obedience of their collaborative team”. He/she can motivate a group of people to follow him/her willingly. This also aims to improve their communication skills, goal actualisation, listening skills and emotional intelligence.

This week it was presentation on my theme about how I will lead an organisation. Though, it was for one theme, I read about all my five themes and I think I have a fair idea on how to lead a group of people……….Commented Shriyam Srivastava, who attended Ex-CHAMATKAR

This week we learnt about leadership; its importance, components and application. I'm very weak in public speaking but I managed to give the presentation after rehearsing for it. This has really helped me. I'm honestly loving the classes and I hope to learn more from you. I hope you come again. I'm going to miss you, sir. You have helped me to improve…. Commented Meghna Deka on termination of Ex-CHAMATKAR
