Gen Y And Gen X Training
The new face of Gen Y and Gen X is about to change the way we think about training. The new definition for Gen Y and Gen X includes many of the elements of their parents. However, they are also radically different in other ways. The average Gen Y member of our society is introverted and does not like to engage in group activities. Gen X members on the other hand like to discuss their problems and have social relationships.
In order to be successful in school, Gen Y and Gen X member must develop the ability to create social relationships. This can only come through participation and involvement in activities that they enjoy. Learning about social interaction through literature and television programs is not enough.
For the new generation, the focus is changing. Gen Y does not place high importance on academic achievement. They value character development more than learning a subject or grade. The new trend in education for the new generation is values education. A large emphasis is placed on helping the child identify his or her own values, which are then incorporated into their education. They learn what it means to be responsible and follow that path throughout their lives.
Gen Y and Gen X members have been separated by gender roles in the past. Gen Y tends to value activities that they can do alone versus activities that need teamwork. While it is possible for a girl to pursue a career without involving a partner, Gen Y tends to view partnership as important. Through projects designed to bring a team together, children begin to understand how their actions affect the people around them. This helps them develop more responsible behaviors.
In the past, children were encouraged to play sports for physical stimulation and to show off their bodies. These days, however, they are looking for a balance between exercise and studying. This is evident in the popularity of cheerleading and gymnastics. In elementary school, children are encouraged to take an interest in foreign language classes. While it may seem pointless to learn a foreign language, these classes help students develop a sense of culture. Language lessons also provide the opportunity to expose students to the cultures of other countries.
The youth of Gen Y are notorious for their ability to seek self-fulfillment. Students want to know that they are achieving things that others cannot. By offering courses in creative hobbies, art, and unique hobbies, schools encourage this attitude.
There are many clubs and groups Gen Y is involved in. Because of their focus on individualism, Gen Y is drawn to clubs that focus on one's interests. For example, Girl scouts and Boy Scouts are still considering desirable organizations for young men.
In terms of work, Gen Y workers tend to place greater importance on creativity and technology than previous generations. It has become necessary for companies to cater to the increasing number of Gen Y customers. A Gen Y employee can contribute knowledge and skills that can be used to help a company grow through new ways of doing things. This is evident with the rise of "gigs," or small projects run by independent contractors. Through its desire to contribute creatively, Gen Y is bringing unique business ideas to the workplace.
Technology is always evolving, but it is possible for Gen Y to identify with past generations' concerns about the environment, global warming, and nuclear weapons proliferation. Because of their anti-intellectual views, Gen Y does not like technology that is too abstract. Gen Y tends to reject television shows that focus on large issues such as politics, religion, and social issues. Instead, they prefer programs that provide them with quick solutions. In this way, Gen Y is similar to earlier generations' concern about gravity.
As more of Gen Y enters the workforce, the need for worker reintegration strategies will be vital. This is another result of the disproportionate number of Gen Y employees. Gen Y is wired to interact with others who are older and experienced, and may have different ideas about the way to solve a problem. Creating an atmosphere of trust between employees can help solve problems within a company.
If you think you have what it takes to be part of Gen Y, work in a setting where you have a chance to influence other generations. You may be surprised at just how accommodating you will be. Gen Y is eager to explore new ideas and open new possibilities. Make yourself available. This is the generation that will shape the direction of the world.
