Young workers have high expectations (see last week's tip). They expect more feedback, more access to their managers, and more flexibility. Provide effective team leadership, and they can be highly productive workers. Here are some strategies that work: * Have frequent 1:1 meetings. * Elicit their opinions * Explain your decision-making process. * Give challenging assignments * Provide guidance rather than directives. * Allow the freedom to do their work when and how they choose while meeting high standards. * Provide opportunities and challenges * Get them the training they need.
