Our dreams and aspirations are based on a foundation of our values and priorities. So too is "The American Dream" and depending on who you talk to, the definition of what constitutes that dream will vary widely.
In "The World of Generation Y", a recent article in the Los Angeles Daily News, Penelope Trunk the Brazen Careerist makes the point that Gen X and Gen Y workers center their criteria for the American Dream on time (and quality of life), rather than money.
This insight into the differing values and priorities of Baby Boomers, Gen X and Gen Y workers could prove exceedingly helpful to employers for both recruitment and talent development purposes. Values and priorities are key concepts in what makes for a good career/job fit - and what keeps a worker motivated.
