No, they are not extracted from Mars, but Generation Xers are dramatically different from the Boomers. On this blog are the first 7 generational differences you?re likely to see between generation Y in the workplace and generation X in the workplace. generation y in the workplace   1. Some of their attitude to authority is relaxed. It?s not that Xers don?t accept authority; it?s that they are unimpressed by authority. Xers grew up watching many authority figures descend from grace; think Nixon, Jim Baker, and Jimmy Swaggart. Too many also watched their own parents (their initial authority figures) seperate. What they experienced had a distinct impact on their viewpoints on authority. Inthe writers explain that Xers are more than likely to address the company CEO the same way they would the front-desk receptionist. 2. Generation X at work, thrives in a casual, enjoyable work environment. You?d would have a difficult experience finding a stuffed shirt Xer. Generation X wants an easygoing and casual workplace, more than once a month. In Generations At Work, the authors report that many (Xers) assert that relaxed days aren?t just a perk: "they actually make us work harder and get more done". Furthermore, the authors of Generations At Work claims that almost anything that makes work less corporate, goes over well with generation X.    3. Xers are pessimistic when it comes to their years to come. A evaluation of Generation X revealed that more Xers strongly believe General Hospital will be around longer than Social Security. Xers have encountered massive firings and slashes in company benefit plans. They are dubious about their future and almost no Xer expects to work at one company until retirement. 4. They posess a nontraditional opinions toward time. This is just one more of the generational differences. The attitudes of many Xers is "as long as I get my work finished and do my fair share, what does it really matter what time I arrive or go?" Don?t confuse this outlook with laziness. Xers grew up in adaptable times and they handle everything, even work schedules, with a flexible attitude. generation y in the workplace    5. Loved ones and job balance is very important to Xers. Many Xers were raised in families with both parents working. s a result, there was no one waiting at home to serve them snacks. Their parents made quite a few sacrifices, including missing out on school musicals and sporting games. Xers are motivated to make work serve their lives and not the other way around. 6.  Generation Xers usually tend to be technologically intelligent. You?re probably not amazed to learn than that Xers will desire to hold meetings and make conclusions digitally traditional staff gatherings and memos. Xers grew up with video games, microwaves, and VCRs. Technology is second nature to them. generation y in the workplace 7. Generation Xers are rarely workaholics. While it may be typical to find a Boomer who is a workaholic, this is not the case with Xers. If you?ve had ?difficulties? understanding, managing, or motivating your Generation X (1965-1976) employees, you?re not the only one. Few administrators are naturally gifted with the specific skills, strategies, and brains it takes to manage and motivate this young, unique, intricate, and talented generation.
