Today's workplace is composed of four generational groups of employees, each with varying degrees of technological expertise, career expectations, and professional experience. As such, higher education administrators need to identify differences among generations of workers and develop a strategic plan for managing and motivating across the generations. This case study addresses the following question: “How do higher education administrators lead and motivate multi-generational employees and online students?” An understanding of the common characteristics of each generational group is the first step for developing a strategy for motivating all employees and students in higher education. Communication, mentoring programs, training, respect, and opportunities for career advancement are components valued by all. It is important for higher education administrators to understand the values, work ethic, and communication style of the different generations. The implications for higher education administrators lie in establishing an organizational culture that promotes satisfaction for all individuals in the higher education setting.
如今的职场由四代员工组成,每代人都有不同程度的技术专长、职业期望和专业经验。因此,高等教育管理人员需要确定各代工人之间的差异,并制定管理和激励各代工人的战略计划。本案例研究解决了以下问题:“高等教育管理者如何领导和激励多代员工和在线学生?”了解每一代人的共同特征是制定激励所有高等教育员工和学生的战略的第一步。沟通、指导计划、培训、尊重和职业发展机会是所有人都重视的组成部分。对于高等教育管理者来说,了解不同世代的价值观、职业道德和沟通方式是很重要的。对高等教育管理者的启示在于建立一种促进高等教育环境中所有个体满意度的组织文化。

This chapter describes a community-based participatory research project that embraces opportunities to augment the skills necessary to excel in an increasingly diverse workforce, especially in terms of proficiency in communication, social interaction, and technology. The Intergroup Communication Intervention (ICI) provides needed technology skills training to older adults in a community setting to improve intergroup relationships, foster positive civic attitudes and skills, and reduce ageist attitudes of younger adults. Participants build workforce skills necessary for future success as the project advances group and interpersonal communication skills across generations using technology pedagogy to bridge the divide. The ICI approach is systematic and grounded in theory. Analyses across the project's last three years demonstrate how communication processes ignite the powerful bonding that can occur over technology. This chapter encourages future research with similar goals of using longitudinal, communication studies to enhance community, competencies, and the future workforce.
本章描述了一个以社区为基础的参与性研究项目,该项目包含了增加必要技能的机会,以便在日益多样化的劳动力中脱颖而出,特别是在沟通、社会互动和技术方面的熟练程度。群体间沟通干预(ICI)为社区环境中的老年人提供必要的技术技能培训,以改善群体间关系,培养积极的公民态度和技能,并减少年轻人的年龄歧视态度。参与者将培养未来成功所必需的劳动力技能,因为该项目通过使用技术教学法来跨越几代人的团队和人际沟通技能。ICI方法是系统的,有理论基础的。该项目过去三年的分析表明,沟通过程如何点燃了技术上可能发生的强大联系。本章鼓励未来有类似目标的研究,使用纵向,沟通研究来增强社区,能力和未来的劳动力。

This chapter looks at the changing demographics of the world and examines how the needs of an aging population make it imperative for governments to factor old-age policies and programs in national planning. The chapter then interrogates the situations and problems of the elderly in India, focusing on old women and old widows who are distinct in their socio-economic and psychosocial needs. It dwells on the slowly changing perceptions and attitudes of both the old and the young towards each other in urban centers and stresses how rural India remains largely untouched by these changes.

The need for understanding Generation Y employees' attitudes and expectations that considerably differed from previous generations had been a focus of researchers in the last decades. IT industry and specifically software industry had been among the most popular employment areas of Generation Y professionals and hence Generation Y Software Developers constitutes the majority of the work force in the software industry. As known, software development is a project-based business where the project management methodologies and principles are utilized. Similar to other project based works, the effectiveness of human resources management and team development is the determinant of project success in software development. Therefore, to effectively manage and to adapt appropriate approaches for leading the project teams which include Generation Y software professionals, managers and leaders prior in need to understand their perspective. In this context, research aims to understand the expectations and attitudes of Generation Y Software Developer professionals in projects. The research is structured in two parts reflecting these dual aims. The first part of the research addresses the expectations of Y generation employees from project management and project environment in software development projects. The second part of the research explores the attitudes of Y generation Employees in software development project teams. Survey is conducted with the participation of 113 Generation Y Software Professionals who are employed in major software companies in Turkey. Basic concepts that are explored in the study are expectations from working environment, expectations from project type and content, leadership, motivation factors, challenges faced, perceptions on generation conflicts and the attitudes of Generation Y professionals towards project-based work and work environments. Software industry is dominated by project based management methods, perceptions and attitudes of Generation Y in projects are expected to provide practical guidelines to policy makers and HR professionals in developing solutions and tools for improving motivations and effectiveness of Generation Y employees.
在过去的几十年里,研究人员一直关注Y一代员工的态度和期望,因为他们与前几代人有很大的不同。IT行业,特别是软件行业一直是Y一代专业人士最受欢迎的就业领域之一,因此Y一代软件开发人员构成了软件行业的大部分劳动力。众所周知,软件开发是基于项目的业务,其中使用了项目管理方法和原则。与其他基于项目的工作类似,在软件开发中,人力资源管理和团队发展的有效性是项目成功的决定因素。因此,为了有效地管理和适应适当的方法来领导项目团队,包括Y一代软件专业人员、经理和领导者,需要事先了解他们的观点。在此背景下,研究旨在了解Y一代软件开发人员在项目中的期望和态度。本研究分为两个部分,反映了这两个目标。研究的第一部分从软件开发项目的项目管理和项目环境两个方面阐述了Y世代员工的期望。研究的第二部分探讨了软件开发项目团队中Y世代员工的态度。该调查是在土耳其主要软件公司工作的113名Y一代软件专业人员的参与下进行的。研究中探讨的基本概念是对工作环境的期望、对项目类型和内容的期望、领导力、激励因素、面临的挑战、对代际冲突的看法以及Y一代专业人士对基于项目的工作和工作环境的态度。软件行业被基于项目的管理方法所主导,项目中Y世代的观念和态度有望为政策制定者和人力资源专业人员提供实用的指导方针,以开发解决方案和工具,以提高Y世代员工的动机和效率。

For the first time in history there are four generations co-existing in the workplace. Each generation, Traditionalists, Baby Boomers, Generation X and Generation Y, has very distinct attitudes, values, ideas, behaviors, ways of communicating, and expectations. These generational differences can affect everything in the organization including recruiting and retaining employees, team building, communicating, motivating, and managing. To successfully integrate these diverse generations, companies will need to embrace changes that actively demonstrates respect and inclusion for all generations. Organizations that find a way to accommodate all generations may create a more productive work environment resulting in a powerful competitive advantage.
这是历史上第一次有四代人在工作场所共存。每一代人,传统主义者、婴儿潮一代、X一代和Y一代,都有非常不同的态度、价值观、想法、行为、沟通方式和期望。这些代际差异会影响到组织中的方方面面,包括招聘和留住员工、团队建设、沟通、激励和管理。为了成功地整合这些不同的世代,公司需要积极地拥抱变化,表现出对所有世代的尊重和包容。找到一种方法来容纳所有年龄段的组织可能会创造一个更富有成效的工作环境,从而产生强大的竞争优势。

This study critically analyzes precarious youth employment in Bangladesh having a specific focus on her tourism industry. Traditionally, the tourism economy of Bangladesh is considered as promising. This research arguably identifies the tourism industry of Bangladesh encouraging conceptual precarious youth employment. From theoretical perspective, this chapter addresses the Theory of Scientific Management of Frederick Taylor (1911) and the Systems Theory of Dunlop (1958) in this context. This conceptual study understands precarious youth employment in the Bangladesh tourism and relates relevance of the two theories mentioned. Based on arguments, this study outlines the role of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) as a latent option to minimize issues generated from precarious youth employment. An in-depth analysis offers policy suggestions for the betterment of youth employment in the Bangladesh tourism industry.
这项研究批判性地分析了孟加拉国不稳定的青年就业,特别关注她的旅游业。传统上,孟加拉国的旅游经济被认为是有前途的。这项研究可以证明,孟加拉国的旅游业鼓励了概念上不稳定的青年就业。从理论的角度来看,本章在此背景下论述了弗雷德里克·泰勒(1911)的科学管理理论和邓洛普(1958)的系统理论。这一概念研究了解不稳定的青年就业在孟加拉国旅游业和相关的两个理论提到的相关性。基于各种论点,本研究概述了信息通信技术(ICT)作为一种潜在选择的作用,以尽量减少青年不稳定就业所产生的问题。深入分析为改善孟加拉国旅游业的青年就业提供了政策建议。

There continues to be a significant increase in the number of post retirement employees (i.e., baby boomers/older workers) in the workforce, either having remained in the organization after retirement or having returned to the workforce in different capacities for varying reasons after their initial separation. A resulting accompaniment to this labor force increase is the increase in the number of boomers who will seek higher education to equip themselves with the skills needed to remain competitive in the workplace. With the advent of online learning, however, the higher education landscape is different from when baby boomers first attended college. This chapter explores the experiences of baby boomers who are pursing graduate studies in an online environment and will discuss appropriate learning strategies for baby boomers to facilitate academic success for this group of learners.
劳动力中退休后雇员(即婴儿潮一代/老年工人)的数量继续显著增加,他们要么在退休后留在组织中,要么在最初离职后因各种原因以不同的身份重返工作岗位。伴随劳动力增长而来的是婴儿潮一代的人数增加,他们将寻求高等教育,以掌握在工作场所保持竞争力所需的技能。然而,随着在线学习的出现,高等教育的前景与婴儿潮一代第一次上大学时不同。本章探讨了婴儿潮一代在网络环境中攻读研究生的经历,并将讨论婴儿潮一代的适当学习策略,以促进这群学习者的学业成功。

The successful completion of information systems projects is already a difficult process that many times ends with projects failing to meet the information systems requirements. These requirements typically center on completing projects that perform the way initially envisioned, and delivering completed projects on time and within budget. Pressures around communication and leadership style are now compounded by the use of virtual teams. The goal of this study was to determine whether or not technical proficiency in the project-based skills, facility with database management systems development, and greater technical proficiency in coping within the virtual environment contributed to the development of greater virtual team effectiveness. This study targeted millennial students at the Maine Business School who were assigned to virtual teams tasked with developing a database management system within a virtual environment. Findings suggest that increased proficiencies in project skills will contribute to greater team effectiveness and more importantly, increased proficiencies within the virtual environment will contribute to greater virtual team effectiveness. These findings have implications for business educators and by natural extension, business practitioners as they suggest that training students and workers how to communicate, collaborate, exchange ideas, and share information better within virtual environments will improve virtual team effectiveness which should translate into greater virtual teams project outcomes.
信息系统项目的成功完成已经是一个艰难的过程,很多时候以项目不能满足信息系统的要求而告终。这些需求通常集中在按照最初设想的方式完成项目,并在预算范围内按时交付完成的项目。如今,虚拟团队的使用加剧了沟通和领导风格方面的压力。本研究的目标是确定基于项目的技能的技术熟练程度、数据库管理系统开发的能力以及在虚拟环境中应对的更高技术熟练程度是否有助于提高虚拟团队的效率。这项研究的目标是缅因商学院的千禧一代学生,他们被分配到虚拟团队中,任务是在虚拟环境中开发数据库管理系统。研究结果表明,提高项目技能的熟练程度将有助于提高团队的效率,更重要的是,提高虚拟环境中的熟练程度将有助于提高虚拟团队的效率。这些发现对商业教育者和自然延伸的商业从业者都有启示,因为他们建议培训学生和工人如何在虚拟环境中更好地沟通、协作、交换想法和共享信息,将提高虚拟团队的效率,从而转化为更大的虚拟团队项目成果。

These findings have implications for business educators and by natural extension, business practitioners as they suggest that training students and workers how to communicate, collaborate, exchange ideas, and share information better within virtual environments will improve virtual team effectiveness which should translate into greater virtual teams project outcomes.","PeriodicalId":115157,"journal":{"name":"Five Generations and Only One Workforce","volume":"133 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114667212","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Youth employment has been a challenge with gradual acceleration from beginning of 1990s. It also has been exacerbated by latest global crises. Besides, as a fact mutually having a fostering relation with it, increasing rate of inactive population among the youth has caused to soar worry about the matter. Although youth unemployment is a common problem for developed and developing countries, it differs in these countries in terms of formation, intensity and solution way. In two decades countries around the world have implemented particular policies against the matter accordance to action plans prescribed by international organizations such as ILO, OECD and EU. Even though, there has been some partial improvements as a result of economic and labour market policies, there is a long way to solve the problem significantly and to decrease the anxiety down to reasonable level. Therefore, the countries must continuously monitor and analyze their conditions and create integrated policies suited to socio-economic conjuncture.
20世纪90年代以来,我国青年就业面临的挑战逐渐加剧。最近的全球危机也加剧了这一问题。此外,作为一个事实,与之相互促进的关系,年轻人中不断增加的非活动人口率引起了人们对此事的担忧。青年失业问题是发达国家和发展中国家共同面临的问题,但在形成、强度和解决方式上各不相同。二十年来,世界各国根据劳工组织、经合发组织和欧盟等国际组织制定的行动计划,实施了针对这一问题的具体政策。尽管由于经济和劳动力市场政策,已经有了一些部分的改善,但要显著解决这个问题并将焦虑情绪降低到合理水平,还有很长的路要走。因此,各国必须不断监测和分析其情况,并制定适合社会经济形势的综合政策。
