Millennials are the generation born between 1980 and 1994 who have been given a reputation that says they have an inborn distrust of hierarchy and bureaucracy, and are prone to job-hopping. But is this reputation actually true? To manage your Millennial employees, you must understand the group and how they compare to other generations before them. How to manage and motivate what some call the “trophy generation” is a hot topic of conversation and a concern for many businesses and managers. The good news is that millennials are like most people, they aim to have a job where they are valued, make an impact and develop their skills, all while being interested in what they do and being fairly paid for their effort. They want a secure job, but they aren’t looking to make one job their life’s work.
This interactive, online course will discuss how millennials are different from other generations when it comes to their views on careers, success and professional growth. You'll learn coaching and managing tips to help make sure recognition is fair and consistent. You'll also learn how to leverage modern technology to increase engagement, and how to make work challenging, engaging, and fun.
Course Objectives

  • Identify the characteristics that define millennials
  • Describe management strategies effective for managing millennials
  • Discuss the most effective ways to use recognition to motivate employees
  • Identify ways to leverage modern technology to attract and retain millennial employees
