Summary
Learn how to retain your millennial workforce and improve multi-generational interaction.
It is estimated that the generation known as millennials (born between 1980 and 2000) comprise half of the current UK workforce. It is therefore no surprise that many organisations, and society as a whole, is experiencing something of a cultural shift.
Growing up alongside evolving technologies and being more globally connected than any preceding generations means that millennials have a new set of skills and perspectives to bring to the workplace.
This highly practical and interactive workshop demonstrates how to embrace and maximise the unique attributes millennials bring. We will discuss how they interact across the other four generations and discuss strategic insights and actionable strategies. This can add significant value to your organisation and will help create a strong, inclusive team culture.
49% of millennials would, if they had the choice, quit their current jobs in the next two years. In the 2017 report, that number was 38%. (Deloitte 2019).
Drawing upon Deloitte’s findings from their annual survey of more than 10,000 millennials, we will explore what motivates this generation, how to align your priorities with theirs, and the importance of mentoring and coaching as opposed to traditionally prescriptive management theory. This increases the likelihood of your millennial workforce staying, contributing and growing with your organisation.
We will also discuss the concept of reverse mentoring across generations and demonstrate that you can learn just as much from your millennial team members as they will from you.
Regardless of which generation you belong to, you will leave with a greater appreciation of how to develop both yourself and the new working generation you manage.
