According to a recent report from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, which predicts that this year millennials will represent the majority of the workforce and, by 2030, this connected, tech savvy group will comprise 75% of the workforce, it is imperative that we understand their needs and values to recruit the best and brightest. To do this, we have to stand out in our communities, create a culture of encouragement, feedback and ownership, be different and be flexible.
Unlike previous generations, millennials want to feel like they’re a part of something and that they can make a difference in the world and workplace. By sharing company goals, allowing them to be part of the decision making process, providing updates and feedback, companies can create an engaging environment in which millennials can succeed and continue to grow.
