Discussion: Organizational Behavior Going Forward My industry has a very aged workforce, with a large volume of employees at retirement age, and many more soon approaching. Because of this, we tend to operate in “old ways”, since as the article put it, those practices are what’s familiar and comfortable (Coiné, 2017). As we work to add younger employees to our staff, it will be important to remember cultural influences and develop an approach to establish the desired culture, at least in my own working group, with the hopes of influencing more people. Communication methods are important to keep in mind, especially when working across several generations, so I will assess my own communication tendencies and work to understand how my team communicates most effectively. Transformational leadership relies strongly on good communication from the leader and within their team in order to motivate and inspire positive changes which keep the organization moving forward and being innovative (Cherry, 2020). Whether a leader is proactive, or is hit with an “insurmountable market pressure” as discussed by Ted Coiné, if they are able to take on a transformational approach to their leadership, they will have a better chance at making their employees embrace the incoming changes, rather than resist. In addition to being more agile, “employees who identified a higher level of transformational leadership in their employers also had higher reported levels of well-being” (Cherry, 2020).
