For X, Boomer & Traditionalist Managers
Generation Y is like no other generation before them – wealthy, powerful and at times they may seem entitled and unmotivated. Many workplace managers are experiencing these traits firsthand, as they struggle with a new wave of employees that hold an ‘attitude of entitlement’ from the first day. They may make demands, show up late, blame others, quit if it gets too difficult, and are very quick to ask about promotions and time off. Their attitude and poor work ethic puzzles and frustrates leaders who were raised in an era of respect and working for rewards. Because few leaders understand what is needed to motivate this group effectively, they tend to rotate through a high turnover of personnel. In her presentation, Generation Y expert Dr. Karyn Gordon will show you practical strategies to effectively manage and connect to this generation.
