Shake Inc. conducted a survey targeting managers (section manager level) and employees (3-10 years of experience) on the perception gap regarding 'ideal organization' and 'leadership'.

In today's business environment, where traditional management styles are becoming less effective, issues like the heavy workload of 'playing managers' and the perception of management positions as 'penalty games' are frequently discussed.

The survey asked respondents about their ideal workplace or team. Managers most highly valued 'continuously producing results and value' (26.7%), whereas young employees placed the highest importance on 'helping and supporting each other' (32.8%).

Regarding the image of leadership, both generations prioritized 'showing a vision and leading the team' and 'motivating others and supporting their performance from behind.' However, managers tended to emphasize 'decision-making,' while young employees emphasized 'leveraging individual strengths and personalities.'

While many workplaces are establishing environments where employees can express themselves and act regardless of their position, there is a clear perception gap between managers and young employees regarding what they expect from an organization.
