GenY… and what kind of bosses they really want

Hays GenY Great Leader TypesNow, that we have adviced in a funny way how Baby Boomers should not engage with their younger GenY’ers, here comes some serious advice again. The recruiting company Hays has done some interesting research in the UK among 1.000 GenY’ers with the title “GenY and the world of work”.

The study shows that 51% of the Millennials want a mentor or Coach as their boss who treats them fair, and who is an expert in his business field. 40% are looking for a leader (but not a dictator), and 34% see an advisor as their ideal boss.

And what are the main quality features a boss must have for the Generation Y? Well, nothing extraordinary…: Ability to motivate them, be supportive and just be fair! Is that a challenge? Not for you, guys, right…?!

There is more in it for you. Just watch their study video…
