Trending: tailored workshops for business development groups

In the latest Copenhagen Institute for Futures Studies’ report, 100 % Business Development, we have spotted 8 trendencies for the future-oriented business development manager.

What motivates Generation Y?

And what is required to manage them?

Generation Y (young people born between 1980 and the end of the 90’s) now constitute a substantial part of the workforce. Cueing after Gen Y is Generation Z – the teens and tweens. These generations have been coined primadonnas, manager’s nightmares, and popstar children. They are digital natives, globally oriented, individualistic, and naturally embedded in networks and more than a few are hyperactive on social media. For the manager, Generations Y and Z are troublesome and hard to understand, but because of their motivation, creativity and flexibility, they will be an invaluable asset to advance your organization into a new era.
