This
infograph created by Michael C Fina accurately depicts many misconceptions in the workplace today. While
debunking the myths, it also simultaneously highlights the importance of
employee engagement and its key role for maintaining a powerful staff. Having
intangible rewards that give employees incentives makes for a higher return
on investment and creates an environment of happy campers. Treating each individual
equally and applauding their accomplishments are just a few suggestions to
becoming an effective and amiable boss.
This
is especially true with millennials, who are often depicted as unmotivated
and uncommitted. As the fifth graph shows, a millennial’s dream boss is a mentor
who is open minded and treats others equally. If that is done, millennials will look
up to their boss in admiration and respect and want to impress them. An effort
put in on the boss’s side will result in having a mutually
beneficial and effective work relationship with his/her employees. Finding the perfect balance of when to be socially equal
and when to be a leader will create an ambiance that everyone looks forward to entering
daily. An employee who continually shows respect will naturally reciprocate
that, both on and off the clock.
We would like to hear from you. What do you think are some good ways to engage the millennial workforce?
