Conventional wisdom holds that Millennials are entitled, easily distracted, impatient, self-absorbed, lazy, and unlikely to stay in any job for long. On the positive side, they’re also looking for purpose, feedback, and personal life balance in their work. Companies of all kinds are obsessed with understanding them better.
The fascination with Millennials has given rise to a new consulting industry. Hundreds of firms, speakers, authors and individual experts are competing for a share of the "Millennials are Different" segment of the $ 150 billion-a-year global HR consulting market. There’s even a consultancy that specializes in helping other consultants hone their message to tap into this lucrative market,.
While concise descriptions of what makes Millennials unique are presented as self -evident and seem to have a ring of truth to them, very few are supported with solid empirical research. On the contrary, a growing body of evidence suggests that employees of all ages are much more alike than different in their attitudes and values at work. To the extent that any gaps do exist, they amount to small differences that have always existed between younger and older workers throughout history and have little to do with the Millennial generation per se.
In the research presented in our 2002 book, The Human Capital Edge, Ira Kay and I found that whether one looks across generation, race, or gender employees have generally wanted the same things from work. Four key questions continue to recur when employees are deciding whether to join, give their best effort or stay at an organization. And they appear to stand the test of time:
Is this a winning organization I can be proud of? Employees want to be proud of the organization they work for. They want to work for a successful, high-performing company and for leaders with a blend of competence, integrity and vision.
Can I maximize my performance on the job? Virtually all employees want to be able to do a good job. That means working in an environment that will make the most of their skills and which provides the resources, information, authority and training necessary to perform at their best.
Are people treated well economically and interpersonally? People want to work in an inclusive environment where they are respected, valued and treated fairly. They want their opinions to count, and they want their contributions recognized and rewarded both financially and psychologically.
Is the work itself fulfilling and enjoyable? Everyone wants to enjoy the work they do and the people with whom they work. They also want to derive a sense of meaning and purpose from what they do every day.
Companies that create environments in which employees answer each of these four questions with a resounding "Yes"-regardless of their generation-are those most likely to win the war for talent.
The text suggests that Millennials would be most attracted by
选项
A、the glamour of their prospective leaders.
B、the chances to enhance their performance.
C、the purpose in their meaningful work.
D、the favorable environment of organizations.
答案
D
解析
(1)本题需要综合(概括)第5、6、7、8段的内容,题干有most,的限制。(2)根据文章,“公司应该给予员工自豪感”(第5段:proud),“为员工营造工作环境,提高员工的工作表现”(第6段:performance),“人们需要一个不排斥任何人的环境,在经济上和人际上都称心”(第7段:inclusive environment,economically,interpersonally),“工作本身带来满足感和愉快感”(第8段:fulfilling,enjoyable)。(3)此外,在第9段再次提到了“环境”的字眼。据此,选项[D]正确。
