When I read a great book, I pull out five different colored highlighters to keep track of what I gain from the content. One color is for important ideas, another is for good stories, another is for statistics or data, another for great quotes and another for action steps. That way, when I return to the book later, I can quickly find helpful takeaways.

In my recent book, The Future Begins with Z, I talk about leading Generation Z in the workplace. They’re so different than older generations that they often present a challenge to their managers. I just wonder—what if our greatest challenge could become our greatest solution to future challenges?
