Focus groups with 50 managers and interviews with 14 adults in "Generation X" (aged 24 to 32) elicited three themes: the work environment must support continuing learning, mentors and leaders should lead by example, and this age cohort places major importance on multidimensional lives. Mentor relationships in the workplace were valued. (SK)
