Overview/Description
This course deals with the characteristics and needs of the two youngest generations in the work force--Generations X and Next. These two generations have quite different attitudes toward work and career development. The first lesson identifies the needs of younger people with regard to their unique position in modern markets, desire for flexibility, desired work rewards, and career development opportunities. The second lesson focuses closely on Generation X. This generation's work traits, personality traits, and potential workplace conflicts are examined. A separate "threaded" topic shows a Gen X employee's behavior in a protracted work scenario. The third lesson looks closely at the youngest group of workers--Generation Next. Separate topics look at this generation's work traits and career potential. The last "threaded" topic shows a Generation Next worker interacting with others in a protracted work scenario.
