Culture Shock

"But I need me time " When faced with a young employee looking at her disappointedly after being told she needed to work over a holiday, author Dr. Joanna Dodd Massey did what many Gen X managers do. She thought to herself, "I've worked through every vacation I ever took " But, instead of reacting, she paused and found a compromise to serve both the company and her employee. Americans are experiencing a culture revolution unlike anything we have seen since the 1960s. Millennials and Gen Z are nearly half of the U.S. population and, as consumers and employees, they are dramatically changing the way we work. In this book, Dr. Massey, a communications expert with a Ph.D. in psychology and an MBA, does a deep dive into the five generations at work, examining how they behave and why. Using a humorous and candid writing style, Dr. Massey breaks the news to her cantankerous colleagues that resistance is futile, and they need to change or risk becoming irrelevant in the not-so distant future.
