The Gen Y Princess

I'm a starfish, she boasts. (She might be right).

"A Gen-Y leader’s efforts to maintain influence will be harder.... [because] As a generation, we’re remarkably good at calling bull. We have no qualms about holding our leaders up to the light to check for transparency.

"For the Gen-Y leader, it isn’t about ego, but about sharing ownership and building a community of ideas.

"Our generation won’t put up with selfish thoughts, unethical behavior, or tired ideas.

"We are a starfish generation. Go ahead and try to chop one of us down, and we’ll grow a whole sprawling forest in that person’s place. We’re that strong. We’re that motivated. We don’t respond lightly to pressure or corruption.
