Motivation is a learned skill. It requires the understanding of not only the desires of subordinates, but the biases of those charged with steering the organization which the subordinates serve. This design permits an unbiased approach toward developing goals that not only continue to motivate but serve to meet any organization’s long standing goals. Motivation is one of the most effective strategies to increase productivity and satisfaction in the workplace. Motivation can be challenging when employees belong to different generations, since different generations have different incentives and opportunities. In this paper we present some of the current strategies to motivate employees from younger generations in the current present environment, where the majority of the workforce is occupied by Baby boomers. Our paper is especially focused on the importance of creating a future strategy, designed to motivate employees once the Baby boomers leave the workforce.
