The dynamics of the formation of bonds of cooperation and solidarity among young people from generation Y in group relationships

The entry of generation Y into the job market has brought to light numerous discussions about how young people of this generation act in group relationships, highlighting hypotheses such as that they are overconfident, disloyal and fickle (Matthewman, 2012). In view of this, the objective of this study is to bring knowledge and elucidation about how young people of generation Y establish bonds of cooperation and solidarity in group relationships. Thus contributing to the academic and business community that can use the information to assist their educational and work formats in organizations and to the scientific community, recording these perceptions for future studies. The methodology is based on a Case Study based on Yin (apud DUARTE, MY M; 2008) with a theoretical and qualitative approach according to Demo (apud DUARTE, J; 2008) in which a Focus Group was applied to people from generation y, x and baby boomers in a group of professionals from a municipal and intermunicipal passenger transport company in Gravataí and in a group of friends from generation y to understand what factors they take into consideration to establish bonds of cooperation and solidarity in the groups of which they are part.
