Understanding Millennials in The Workplace
Millennials are an ever-growing force in the workplace, taking on crucial roles in virtually every industry. However, many have a differing perspective from preceding generations on the way they regard the workplace and their roles within it.
- Millennials place value on experiences, and would much rather have the option to choose the tasks they take on.
- Increased flexibility and the choice to pursue other experiences outside of work are of high priority.
- The diversity and inclusivity (age, gender, ethnicity) of a company’s workforce are important factors for millennials.
- Millennials have a desire to feel that their work and their companies’ work contributes value to society.
- As opposed to prior generations, millennials may be more content with finding a role they thoroughly enjoy and excelling in that role.
- Millennials appreciate companies who can integrate a higher degree of personalization for employees, helping them advance in their roles and career paths.
