As one of the Windows Security Team says, “Generation Y wants to work on cool, cutting-edge projects, and Generation Y wants to be recognised for its work by peers, family and friends.” And
if such projects aren’t provided in the workplace, many will choose to find them in online communities and work on them – for free – in their spare time.
When Theory Y Meets Gen Y
As one of the Windows Security Team says, “Generation Y wants to work on cool, cutting-edge projects, and Generation Y wants to be recognised for its work by peers, family and friends.” And if such projects aren’t provided in the workplace, many will choose to find them in online communities and work on them – for free – in their spare time.
Theory Y says humans are intrinsically motivated to do a good job, and if the right conditions can be created, employees will give their discretionary time for free. Theory Y behaviour came naturally to Smith. Two decades at Microsoft had given him a good intuitive feel for how to get the best out of people.
