This generation’s management style

Can Akdeniz Leadership & Management, MBA

Today’s generation of workers places more value in their personal growth than on their particular career trajectory. If a career is thought of as largely a means to an end, what are the implications for this generation’s management style?

The new generation of management trends toward the following characteristics:

  • A focus on accomplishments over status
  • A focus on individual projects and goals over long-term benefits
  • An increased reliance on consultants and independent contractors over long-term employees.
