"Spiegel puts Generation Y into context without condescension or platitudes.

"The impact of the Gen Ys has become a central focus, not just for professors but also for those who employ this generation around campus. The Gen Y Handbook is a great reference guide as more and more of this younger generation takes on even greater responsibility within our educational communities. We have many departments that have the four generations who work together. They often have misunderstanding about working hard versus working effectively, about workplace boundaries, and about what are, and what are not, appropriate work habits. I highly recommend Diane Spiegel's book as we look at employee productivity, engagement, retention, and effective coaching." -- Prany Sananikone, Director Diversity Relations & Educational Programs - Office of Equal Opportunity & Diversity, University of California, Irvine
"The Gen Y Handbook offers and delivers on how to engage and build effective relationships with this capable and tech savvy talented generation." -- Lisa Flesher Vice President Human Resources, The Gap Inc.
