Our newest workers have developed hypertext minds that leap around with cognitive structures that are parallel, not sequential. Are we ready for them? Do we know what their ideal workplace looks like, or the organizations they most admire? Might we have to teach social skills to a group that, at graduation, have spent 11,000 hours in school and 15,000 hours watching TV? This multimedia session will encourage audience participation with interactive exercises, humorous video clips and graphic visuals. You will also leave with ideas from the research that the FutureWorks Institute (FWI) has gathered from organizations that have developed innovative practices to build relationships and engage this generation.
