The much-discussed Generation Y should do everything new and differently. Those born between 1980 and 1999 are the first to be more or less shaped by the breakthrough of the internet. And for many Executives this "Generation Y" is simply a mystery.

How does Generation Y tick?

What that for our Society and Working world means, explains Steffi Burkhart in her very interesting book “The spiders, the boys”.

Much is heard of Generation Y, which should be so different. And that does not seem to fit our work ethic. What this generation really wants and what they new and good about ours Companys and our society. And the author Burkhart must know, because she is part of this generation!

Naughty or fresh?

Characteristic of this generation is the questioning of hierarchies and facts. Their basic conviction is to know and to know everything.

Older persons may feel this as presumption. But there are also opportunities to evaluate things and facts afresh and differently.

Generation Y stands for innovation

Steffi Burkhart sees the basis for innovations precisely in the conviction of Generation Y that they can do everything, because this is also linked to the belief that there is always one Solution to be able to find.

For dealing with the age group, the author collects ample tips and background knowledge for managers and executives.

This is how the transition works!

The transition from university to your first job is not that easy. Suddenly the rules of the game are different - which you often don't even know yet! Isabelle Pfister has written this competent guide to make it easier to get started. This is how young professionals can fast on their Tasks focus.

Many Boy People have after the successful Study Difficulty integrating into professional life. Experts speak of a practical shock that hits those who are unprepared and without (external) help from the rather free student life to the heavily regulated one all the harder work life changes. The differences often start with the dress code and don't end with the work instructions.

Student and professional life: Two worlds clash!

The qualified psychologist and trainer Isabelle Pfister has written a very useful guide for these young professionals, which is not only recommended for recent university graduates. The almost 180 pages are not only about the important topic of self-management, but also fundamentally about survival strategies in what is for many people new and unknown Welt of companies and businesses.

Among other things, Pfister gives valuable tips for dealing with colleagues ("colleagues are not always friends..."), for avoiding (negative) Stress, for addressing the eMail-Flood. And of course a chapter on an important topic is allowed Time management not missing.

Practical life coaching for career starters

But it is not just practical tips with which Pfister wants to make life easier for the career starter. It also touches on more fundamental questions such as:

• "What is important to you anyway?"
• "What do you want to achieve?"
• “How do you want to look back on your life as an old person?”.

What I also like about the book is the understanding Pfister meets with the young people at the beginning of their careers.

Almost everyone has difficulty starting

Also great: Numerous quotes from managers at various companies show that almost everyone had to struggle with such initial difficulties and how they can be overcome.

"Get Organized" by Isabelle Pfister is a great and valuable book for anyone who is on the threshold from student to professional life. But even those who have been working for some time will benefit from reading this book.

Unlock the parachute

The writing team Bolles, Christen and Blomquist picks up the school leavers with the parachute. This metaphor is a good choice for two reasons. On the one hand, she indicates that the book is about an adventurous journey to one's own needs, abilities and desires.

On the other hand, the parachute picture specifies the goal: “Land where you want to land”. And best of all gently. The very practical book written in the target group-appropriate “Du” title helps to identify your own interests and competencies and to assign them to relevant job profiles.

It is the “Discover-yourself-book” for the tablet generation. Here it is not along the letters, but along the images, charts and digression. And all in a book format that is closer to the tablet computers than to the classic book - just a little thicker.

target of “Business Model You” is to give job starters a method, their professional Future approach in a strategically clever way (and of course it is also aimed at all those who have failed to do so so far).

The basis for the “Business Model You” method is the highly decorated and award-winning book “Business Model Generation”. In it, a creative team of authors has taken an innovative approach to enabling strategy work in companies.

“Business-Model You” is a useful workbook for anyone who wants to reposition themselves in the (business) world. It helps to discover one's own abilities and to identify possible careers and fields of activity. And against the background that life and work are no longer separate spheres.

Especially recommended because “Business Model You” does not stop at “discovering” their own abilities, but guides them through the systematic development of the nine “building blocks” to put the findings into practice.

Career starters - like the ox before working life?

“The gap in education” is a book that can make starting your job much easier. It shows what needs to be done to ensure that personal skills and talents fall on fertile ground. The "educational gap" literally closes a gap between what we learn in school and university and what is really important in working life.

Is this a career guide? If you like. Even more, “Bildungslücke” is the book that prepares school and university graduates for their professional life beyond their specialist knowledge. Because there is only a rather modest part about actual specialist knowledge, but rather about the much-touted “soft skills”.

The ability to take your life into your own hands

So about the ability to get the day and the work done to plan, the ability to use one's strengths and also the ability to recognize and seize opportunities. All “skills” that are hardly taught in any school. But they are part of it if you want to take your life into your own hands.

This book fills this gap, in which well-known experts Background make available for career starters. A great opportunity to get to know the true demands of the working world.

The “one” in math is no guarantee of economic success

Good grades in math, business or music are one thing. Afterwards in conflict situations to act properly the other. But who does not know that there are methods of conducting conflict talks, who start at zero when it comes to planning the working day, who thinks they are either a good speaker or not, will always be behind their possibilities.

In “Bildungslücke” all of these topics are addressed briefly and concisely. Of course, reading alone does not make a person a good speaker, but it does clearthat and how to become a good speaker.

Quick passage through the “soft skills”

Michael Rossié, for example, is part of this book. As a trained actor and trainer, he conveys the Basics for the effective Presentation in Audience. A skill that scores points at all hierarchical levels.

Negotiating is also such a thing, which follows clear laws and which are presented by Ingeborg Rauchberger well understood and comprehensible. And because all of the performance depends ultimately on physical fitness, Ingo Burkert shows how to make marathon workdays (and of course there is a lot to be).

From talent to qualification

Twenty topics presented by twenty experts. There are the issues that are not just about Success and non-success decide. But the issues that decide whether a job is fun or torture.

“Bildungslücke” is a great book that will make it much easier to get started on the job. It shows what needs to be done so that personal skills and talents fall on fertile ground.
