Middlescents

800-CEO-READ Blog ‘review’ (ok, they write about) a new book that looks at the concept of Middlescents who:

make up more than half your workforce. They work longer hours than anyone else in your company. From their ranks come most of your top managers. They’re your mid-career employees, the solid citizens between the ages of 35 and 55 whom you bank on for their loyalty and commitment. And they’re not happy.

The authors say:

The best way to engage middlescents is to tap into their hunger for renewal and help them launch into more meaningful roles.
