Summary: Naked Dreck!
Comment: As a GenX manager at a "DotCom" company, I expected this book to be full of insight into my employees. The major problem is that this book is hopelessly outdated!
I says that it was published in 1996, but I imagine the research was done way before that. The entire first chapter is devoted to the terrible job market and how GenX'ers do not have the opportunities their parents had, and ad nauseum. The main point of the book is interesting, but common sense: Treat your employees like adults, not children and they won't throw tantrums.
Also, I found it very annoying that everything had to do with X. "X'ercises" at the end of each chapter, being "over X-tended". How trite can you get?
As a GenX'er, I actually felt a bit insulted by this book. There isn't any real difference between our generations and other; they are really only perceived, and propagated by books like this one!
Buy this book if you have absolutely no people skills or knowledge of how to deal with people. Then again, should you really be in management if you don't?
