Colombian millennials at the workplace
(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd., 2019-01-08) Roman-Calderon J.P.; Gonzales-Miranda D.R.; García G.A.; Gallo O.
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to present a study on the antecedents of turnover intentions (TOI) of millennial Colombian employees. A theoretical model in which positive work-family interaction, professional respect (PR) and meaning predicted TOI is simultaneously tested in Millennials and Xers. Design/methodology/approach: The authors used a multigroup structural equation approach to analyze the data provided by 2,157 Millennials and 279 Xers. Participants work in 11 companies from five Colombian cities. City, age, sex, tenure and wage are included as control variables to respond to some limitations of previous research and isolate the effects of age cohorts. Findings: The results show differences in terms of some of the variables under study. Further, the effects of positive work-family interaction and PR on TOI were different from one age cohort to the other. The influence of meaning on the outcome variable was equal in Millennials and Xers but resulted positive. Research limitations/implications: The authors studied an under-researched population, used rigorous analytical procedures to simultaneously test the hypotheses across generations, analyzed data from a large sample size and control for confounding variables identified by researchers inquiring generational differences at the workplace. By these means, the study contributes to literature on millennial employees and age diversity. Originality/value: By studying an under-reseach population and using suitable analytical techniques, the study contributes to literature on millennial employees and age diversity. © 2019, Emerald Publishing Limited.

Efectividad en el liderazgo situacional y tipos de poder en Mineros S.A : un comparativo generacional
(Universidad EAFIT, 2020) Mesa Cardona, Erika Fabiola; López Gallego, Francisco Darío
This research aimed to analyze the leadership styles practiced within the company Mineros SA, as well as the effectiveness and types of power by generational group, for which the measurement instruments of situational leadership developed by Hersey and Blanchard and the French and Raven instrument were applied. The qualitative survey was divided into three focus groups: baby boomers, generation X and millennials, where 65 valid responses were obtained. From the information obtained through the mentioned instruments, the consultative style E2 could be found as the predominant style, and secondly, the participatory style E3. Therefore, a people-oriented trend is perceived, but the absence of the delegative E4 style was also found in the different age groups, and millennials were identified as the most effective and adaptable, followed by baby boomers and, finally, by those belonging to generation X. Regarding the types of power, there is evidence of a perception of low use of legitimate power within the organization, and referring power was identified as one of the most common, which is focused on the charism, which coincides with the results of leadership styles, since the strongest are those related to relationships.

Millennials y su relación laboral con el líder
(Universidad EAFIT, 2021) Rodríguez Arias, Daniel Felipe; González Miranda, Diego René
Generation Y or as it is commonly called, millennial, is today the workforce, bringing with it great defies and challenges for companies. Generational integration, lack of motivation and high staff turnover are some of the most relevant since if they are not managed in a timely manner, the productivity and profitability of companies will be affected. Under this situation, it is considered of great importance to study in detail the characteristics of this generation. In this paper, the working relationship between the millennial and their respective leader was analyzed, identifying the different tensions that may arise in order to find the best way to deal with them and minimize their negative impacts. To achieve this objective, a qualitative analysis was carried out through the study of a group of people belonging to generation Y, who participated in a semi-structured interview with questions related to their work experience, coexistence with superiors and peers, and personal priorities. It is expected that this work can contribute to companies that wish to hire young people (millennials) to achieve an appropriate work environment, correctly motivate their employees and retain human talent.

When technological savviness overcomes cultural differences: millennials in global virtual teams
(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd., 2020-01-01) Velez-Calle, A.; Mariam, M.; Gonzalez-Perez, M.A.; Jimenez, A.; Eisenberg, J.; Santamaria-Alvarez, S.M.
Purpose: There is a generalized belief that cultural differences can have more negative consequences than benefits within the international business (IB) literature. This study argues that cultural differences are not perceived as constrains in millennial global virtual teams (GVTs). Additionally, using the theory of cooperation and competition and the motivated information processing perspective, the purpose of this paper is to uncover the process by which millennials working in GVTs address various challenges to ensure effective functioning and accomplishment of desired team outcomes. Design/methodology/approach: This paper analyzes a data set of 503 project journals from the global enterprise experience, a virtual team competition. It uses qualitative content analysis tools and secondary data sources. Findings: The authors find that for millennials, cross-cultural issues are not the predominant challenge when working in GVTs, unlike the prevailing understanding in the IB literature. This is because contrary to expectations, cross-cultural problems are often not experienced, while other team phenomena become more relevant, such as interpersonal and task-based issues. In addition, the paper describes how members of GVTs apply distinct challenge reconstruction and solution generation cognitive schemes to deal with both, expected and unexpected challenges. Originality/value: This study contributes to the literature on virtual teams by identifying how millennials and post-millennials deal with the challenges embedded in the GVT interaction context by simplifying the unfamiliarity associated with the broader context rather than addressing each issue in isolation. Finally, the paper elaborates on factors that highlight the positive outcomes of multicultural teams while making cultural differences less salient in contemporary GVT contexts. © 2020, Emerald Publishing Limited.
