Mayank Sharma, the founder of a human resources firm (human resources) based in Gurugram, recently took LinkedIn to share his struggles of being an millenary boss. In its publication, Sharma highlighted the challenges of managing a team while caught between the expectations of senior management and the evolutionary demands of the youngest employees. He described his challenge as “interspersed” between the two very different labor cultures. He also pointed out that despite his efforts to achieve a balance, he often ends up disappointing both parties.
“Being a millenary boss is really difficult,” Sharma wrote, explaining, “you have a boomer or a major millenary boss who wants you to torture your team, make people work late in the hours, ask people to come to the Office daily and wear sophisticated clothes. ”
Then he pointed out: “You also had millennials again aging and the reports of the Z generation that want flexibility, balance between work and life, work from home and modern and great clothes.”
In addition, Sharma said that finding a balance between these contrasting needs often leads to disappointment on both sides. “The funny thing is that, in the process of maintaining a good balance, you often end up disappointing both parties,” he said.
The publication of Mr. Sharma resonated with many social network users who faced similar struggles.
