华尔街丑闻，公司裁员。音乐电视播放暴力和成人性主题的录像。人们不再认为有必要保护儿童免受世界现实和成人事务的影响。计算机、手机、自动取款机和互联网都是他们日常生活的一部分，因此创造了一代人，他们期待即时的满足。这些社会背景造就了对价值观、职业道德和权威等的不同看法。X一代对他们工作的机构不忠诚。X一代人认为工作是暂时的;他们的动机是继续教育、培训和收入，而不是忠诚和养老金计划。8例如，31%的24岁以下的护士会在就业的头两年内更换工作。10然而，尽管X一代人经常换工作，但他们可以充满活力和创新精神，并拥有正确的领导类型。X一代喜欢休闲和有趣的工作环境。直接监督不是他们所涉及的管理风格。相反，他们更喜欢被指导和指导。6，8研究各种研究已经检查了变量，如薪酬，福利，时间表，专业地位，自主权，工作量，团队凝聚力，专业精神和文化背景与工作满意度。然而，很少有研究关注X一代的护士。研究表明，X一代重视经济

Generation X prefers a casual and fun working environment. Direct supervision is not the managerial style they relate to.
