Gen Y at work...

This small video sounds useful and interesting to understand a bit more about how to deal with Generation Y people at work...

A day with Generation Y people...

Since energy is the most important source of activity for people, genaration Y people are actually very good in generating energy within themselves...

1. if 1 sleep all the other are sleeping

2. if 1 sing all the other sing

3. if 1 jump all the other jump

It is very very normal to see people which in the second part of the day (early afternoon) they generate a huge peak of energy and activity!

They have phisichal energy in huge quantity and they are able to address it only in one single task, only in 1 hour or less time it will be spread effecting the world around them...

Mental energy and phisical energy are strictly connected and at time one of the 2 is over also the other will not exist anymore.

Influence those people mood or sentiment it is very easy because they are very concentrated on emotions and relationship so they will be able to listen 100% to someone speaking or to someone promoting whatever activity...although they are super scheptical and they can barely be influenced by external source of stimultion still emotional channel is the first one to settle in order to settle change in their mind.

Looking at the following pictures, we can come out with the idea that people of today (gen Y) influenced 90% of the current market establishing a new concept of product loyalty or brand loyalty: No more favourite brand or to be more precise no Brand! Just love mark!

Status Symbol are not needed anymore, emotions are much important then ever and creating emotions it is also much easier then before because the connection between body and mind it is fast and easy to set.

Change is unsettling for them less then other it just need to be planned and well communicated of course the content should fit some shared values.

Approachig new Generation it is always amzing and fascinating, big corporation are investing bln of $ in order to generate sensefull outcome around the impact of each new generation into their internal structure and culture. Sociologist are the most required profile ever... considering that this generation is 3 times bigger than the small Gen X and it is the most diverse ever!

They will search more for new opportunity of leaving and working standards such as "Transition Economies" (http://transitionnetwork.org) and they will create further more innovative solutions that fit to their values... "They want to put their name on the door".

If any of you like this topic we can discuss it further...

Friends & Friendship Influence

Many people expect that their friends will always be there. They expect friendship to last forever.

Yet, friendships end and friends part company everyday. Unfortunately, even the best maintained friendships can end.

Many end because of a change in personality or lifestyle when friends just drift apart and fade away with time. There is a retreat from self-disclosure and seeking out each other's company. Avoidance begins. The friendship slowly loses importance and finally disappears.

Someone said me, "The end of our friendship was a gradual thing. I moved from one side of the metroplex to the other. We had over an hour's drive to see each other. For a year or so, we met very few time. Then our friendship began to taper off."

Someone else wrote me, "I didn't even know the friendship was over until I caught myself thinking of you as a former friend. In the past tense rather than the present."

One of the best friend explained, "We started seeing each other less and less. The friendship was just over."

Other friendships break up suddenly from a disagreement or move to another town.

But I truly believe that a friendship or any other relationship fails because of three things:

• Unexpressed expectations,
• Undelivered communication,
• And/or thwarted attentions

Yet the biggest threat to a friendship is change.

For example, moving from single life to coupled life has a great effect on friendship. Coupled persons often feel their single friends act interested in them only when a romantic prospect is not in sight. They may feel jealousy for or neglected by a single friend's new social life. The single friend may feel awkward and withdraw from a world of twosomes. Divorced and widowed people often have a feeling of being abandoned by old friends.

And So on... but still all those things are just a state of mind...

Communication, expectation and care are much more important!

In 28 year of my life i just understood this now...
