 Are your “tried and trusted” methods in engaging with young engineers not working? Why are the younger professionals seemingly harder to understand and connect with?
There is a talent revolution going on in the Oil & Gas industry. As the final members of the baby boomers leave, another generation is arriving on the scene with a mission to transform the workplace. Caught in the middle is a generation who've been patiently waiting their turn to shine only to find-out that the newcomers have other ideas!.
Many line managers are now asking themselves “what’s wrong with young engineers today?” Companies have seen the emergence of two generations, who have different views on work and existing managers are struggling to come to terms with the change.
As a manager or human resources professional what do you need to know to engage and motivate the young engineers?
Whether you are an existing line manager, human resources professional or an internal communications specialist, Petroege is able to assist you in getting a handle on the new breed of engineers, often referred to as the Generation X and Y.
