If you really listen to your Gen Y it could just make your work life easier. We have a lot of telecommuters in our office and once every two weeks we hold team meetings. The telecommuters are required to be present during these meetings. However, times are tough with the economy and we need to cut expenses. One of our Gen Y staff suggested that we utilize web-based conferencing so that the telecommuters can be virtually present in the meetings, thereby reducing overall costs for travel. Now our telecommuters are only required to make meetings one time a month.
