Are you ready for the Gen Y workforce?

(Posted by francois to: human resources )

Fast Company has a funny article about the Generation Y hitting the workforce - and the interesting consequences of over-involved boomer parent.

"Like, say, after Johnny gets a not-so-glowing performance review, Johnny's mom calls his boss: "The best way to motivate Johnny is not through negative feedback!" reprimands Mom"

Are you ready for that? Or is it all a load of hyped up generalizations?

The comments are funny too...universities having to ban parents from campus...or the GenX'er seeing some opportunity "Well maybe these little brat Gen Yers will annoy the old fart Baby Boomers into retiring so us loafing Gen Xers can start moving up the ranks of management"...
