Earl Creps is known for his work in connecting the youngergeneration of postmoderns with their Boomer predecessors. Theauthor of Off-Road Disciplines, Creps, in this new book,takes up the topic of how older church leaders can learn fromyounger leaders who are more conversant with culture, technology,and social context. In addition to making the benefits of what hecalls "reverse mentoring" apparent, he also makes it accessible byoffering practical steps to implement this discipline at bothpersonal and organizational levels, particularly in communication,evangelism, and leadership. Creps' new book is a topic of interest both inside and outsidethe church as older leaders realize that they're not "getting it"when it comes to technologies (iPod, IM, blogging) or culturalissues such as the fact that younger people see the world in anentirely different way. Creps has been personally involved inreverse mentoring for several years and has spoken and written onthe subject extensively. He has pastored three churches (oneBoomer, one Builder, on X'er) and is currently a church planter inBerkeley, California. He has also served as a consultant and and aseminary professor and administrator, holding a PhD inCommunication Studies and a D.Min. from the Assemblies of GodTheological Seminary.

from Network of Executive Women regarding http://www.newonline.org/news/42483/Reverse-mentoring-builds-teams-NEW-panel-say... Reverse mentoring:
*Among the key points the industry executives have learned in their relationships with younger employees: Members of Gen Y and Gen X rank work/life balance more important than their Baby Boomer colleagues and use technology as an enabler to help them get their work done.
"Boomers tend to look at technology like Blackberries as status symbols of rank versus tools to get the job done more efficiently and effectively,” Freitas noted.
Added Richardson: "At Clorox we focus on communicating clear expectations and goals and then we get out of the way, so our employees can accomplish the work in the best way they see fit.”*
certainly this is advice from which church leadership, amongst others, would benefit.
*The panel discussion closed with advice for employees of all generations who want to get along better with the colleagues: Become a better listener, be flexible and carefully communicate across the generations in a manner that resonates with them. While Boomers may like a formal thank you note on stationary, a Gen X or Gen Y is happy to receive a Tweet.
"We all know diverse work teams consistently outperform non-diverse teams,” Toth said. "A reverse mentoring program encourages multiple opportunities for idea sharing, is low cost and can involve anyone in your organization. Just remember, no one is too old to stop learning or too young to start teaching!” *
