Abstract

Gen Y/Millennials employees have become an important part of enterprise development. Compared with previous generations, this new generation shows higher expectations of work context and participation in management. Globalization and the explosion of new technologies have led to a situation where new employees must equip themselves skills and knowledge to adapt to the fast-changing environment. We explore Gen Y employees' aspirations, the expectations of businesses and identify the fit and gaps between both sides. 6,000+ surveys produce data to inform businesses to develop Gen Y employees and to harness their talents.
