Opgave C - Adjektiver og adverbier
Redefining Gen Y
A generational guide to help Gen X managers understand what's real/really going on with their young employees.
The point of generational analysis - indeed, of understanding any dimension of diversity - is the recognition that unique formative experiences condition us to see and act different/differently. Because members of any single generation have lived through the same times and shared many formative/formatively experiences, common themes tend to characterize how they behave. Not surprising/surprisingly, this shows up acute/acutely in the workplace. There's no right or wrong here. It’s legitimate/legitimately for members of Gen X and Gen Y to interpret events in the workplace different/differently. This often leads to misunderstandings and conflict. Based on my research with members of three generations— Gen Y, Gen X, and Baby Boomers—here are seven impressions that many Gen X managers have formed of their Gen Y employees. Each is a legitimate/legitimately observation of behavior viewed through the Xers’ specific lens. Each can be interpreted different/differently when seen from the Ys’ perspective. 1. Impatient? Perhaps the biggest gripe against Ys by Xers is that Ys want everything now. They don’t want to pay dues over time, as Xers were forced to do with a sea of Baby Boomers blocking their path forward.
Her får du Studienets vejledning i, hvordan du identficerer adjektiver og adverbier og forskellen på dem.

Subject: Nye udfordringer
Kære Graduate Team
Tak for et godt og effektivt møde den 20. november. På mødet nævnte I, at der var en generel tilfredshed med de nuværende arbejdsopgaver, men at I godt kunne tænke jer at få flere udfordringer i fremtiden. Dette har vi taget til efterretning, og derfor kan vi tilbyde jer et kursus i "Corporate Finance" på London Business School.
Kurset, der er på engelsk, begynder den 5. januar 2014 og varer 5 dage. Kurset kan købes til en fast pris af 6.500 engelske pund og betales naturligvis af Intec. Til gengæld forventer vi, at I er villige til at bruge jeres fritid på at dygtiggøre jer. Den afsluttende skriftlige eksamen finder sted i London. For yderligere oplysninger se vedhæftede kursusbeskrivelse.
Vi ser frem til at modtage et svar fra jer inden en uge, så vi kan nå at melde jer til kurset.
Med venlig hilsen
Signe Simonsen
