Young women, says the Hartford Courant, are turning away from careers in business. They believe that “the world of business is boring and driven by greed.” And the trappings of wealth and prestige don’t move them.
“What they want instead, they say in recent studies, is flexibility in their schedules and sufficient time for their personal lives. They want to have a strong rapport with their supervisors and to be engaged in making strategic decisions. They want interesting work with endless learning opportunities.
“Most of all, they want their work to have meaning.” (emphasis added)
