In recent years, Tulgan was named by Management Today as one of the few contemporary figures to stand out as a “management guru” and he was named to the 2009 Thinkers 50 rising star list. On August 13, 2009, Tulgan was honored to accept Toastmasters International’s most prestigious honor, the Golden Gavel. This honor is annually presented to a single person who represents excellence in the fields of communication and leadership. Past winners have included Stephen Covey, Zig Ziglar, Deepak Chopra, Tony Robbins, Ken Blanchard, Tom Peters, Art Linkletter, Dr. Joyce Brothers, and Walter Cronkite.

Tulgan’s most recent books include the updated and expanded edition of "Not Everyone Gets a Trophy: How to Manage the Millennials" and "Bridging the Soft Skills Gap: How to Teach the Missing Basics to Today’s Young Talent". He is also the author of "The 27 Challenges Managers Face," and the best-selling "It’s Okay to Be the Boss," "Managing Generation X", and "It’s Okay to Manage Your Boss". Tulgan’s other books include "Winning the Talent Wars," which received widespread acclaim from Fortune 500 CEOs and business journalists; the best-seller "Fast Feedback"; and "Managing the Generation Mix".
