Of course a general would match their strategy to their army, opponent, and geography among many other considerations.
To do otherwise would be foolish and potentially disastrous. So too
should a manager. If millennials are lacking in a skill or personality
trait, don't just get angry. Get a plan and take action.
President Obama on "How Change Happens" during Howard Commencement Address:
"You see, change requires more than righteous anger. It requires a
program, and it requires organizing. … We remember Dr. King’s soaring
oratory, the power of his letter from a Birmingham jail, the marches he
led. But he also sat down with President Johnson in the Oval Office to
try and get a Civil Rights Act and a Voting Rights Act passed.
...Brittany Packnett, a member of the Black Lives Matter movement
and Campaign Zero, one of the Ferguson protest organizers, she joined
our Task Force on 21st Century Policing. Some of her fellow activists
questioned whether she should participate. She rolled up her sleeves and
sat at the same table with big city police chiefs and prosecutors. And
because she did, she ended up shaping many of the recommendations of
that task force. And those recommendations are now being adopted across
the country — changes that many of the protesters called for. If young
activists like Brittany had refused to participate out of some sense of
ideological purity, then those great ideas would have just remained
ideas. But she did participate. And that’s how change happens."
