Welcome!

First I want to thank everyone for reading. Welcome to the Next Generation Leaders blog. This blog is aimed at Generation Xers who work hard and are heading towards the bright light of leadership for the next generation. We hear in the news about the power and influence of the Baby Boomer generation, and I'm saying, "what about us?" My name is Erik Watkins, I'm the founder of the NG Leaders blog. I was born in March of 1980, son of two ultra-baby boomers (born late '45 and early '46), and bound to be a leader in the next generation.



I have assembled a team of intelligent Generation Xers who I believe are going to be the leaders of the next generation. The idea is that each blogger will have his or her subject of interest and will post on their respective day of the week. I am still constructing the team but without further delay I decided that we should start the blog and those who decide to join us, may at a later date. I have great respect for the team members, and truely believe that they will entertain and inform you with their stories of personal experience.

Here is the Next Generation Leaders blog lineup:

Monday: Tony Bataska - Sports
Wednesday: Erik Watkins - Business & Politics
Friday: Jen Wong - Travel

Tony is going to kick it off with the maiden blog on Monday.

Enjoy!
Erik Watkins
