Abstract

This dissertation investigates as to how poor managerial behaviours impact the motivation and wellbeing of generation z and millennial employees in comparison to generation x in Ireland. It first explores literature regarding negative managerial practices and behaviours and how they have can have a negative impact on employees on an international level. The research conducted regarding the Irish context was then compared back to the literature, where the researcher carried out an in-depth study.

The researcher conducted their study through an online google forms survey where they were able to gather first hand experiences from those who are working in Ireland or who have worked in Ireland.

Using a mixed method approach, the researcher used quantitative data analysis using IBM SPSS and qualitative data analysis through identifying themes.

Using the data, the researcher was then able to compare their findings in the Irish context to a more international conversation in relation to managerial behaviours and the impacts on gen z, millennial, and gen x employees.

The researcher concluded with their findings and recommendations for future studies in relation to this topic.
