How to Include Gen Y in Business Activities
Written by Buddy Hobart on September 17th, 2009
Last week, I shared some thoughts that Herb had expressed regarding the hiring of Gen Y employees. Below are some additional thoughts from Herb that came from that conversation. Herb addresses some ways that he includes Gen Y workers in everyday workplace activities:
“I want to include them in meetings, lunches, trips, where they don’t have the direct or immediate responsibility. They can tag along so they can meet people, listen, learn, and once again feel like they have a future in the company. If it connects to the Gen Y’ers vision and personal goals, it enhances ownership. Include them. If you’re going to lunch with another upper level manager, or it you are going to a meeting, have them sit in and listen so they can give some of their thoughts afterward. If I have a talented person, both kinds of exposure help him/her feel good and to learn.”
