Born after1980, they're now pouring into the work world with values, aspirations, and approaches that differ markedly from their parents-- and coworkers. They're Generation Y.In Plugged In, Tamara Erickson shows Gen Y's how to use their own unique strengths to understand and influence their professional relationships, to figure out how they define "success," and to help them find their way in the changing workplace.
Filled with Erickson's extensive research into demographic trends and thoughtful insights, Plugged In gives Gen Y's the information they crave to connect with the working world and to craft the lives they want.
The author reveals:
