This chapter is excerpted from 'Managing Millennials'. Leadership. Engagement. Retention. Recruitment. Diversity. The key challenges facing workplaces today. Underpinning these challenges is the millennial workforce: 1) A generation who are experiencing global challenges like the economic crisis, debt, job insecurity, and housing unaffordability. 2) A generation who are experiencing personal challenges like social media addictions, pressure, and mental health crisis. 3) A generation who has been put in the 'too hard' basket by a lot of workplaces. 4) A generation who are soon to become the dominant global workforce. To future-proof workplace performance and engagement, workplaces must act. Getting the best out of the millennial workforce means creating an environment where they can thrive. Critical to this is good management and leadership. Without it, workplaces will not resolve the current challenges. This book provides a solution. It's designed to educate readers on the current and future millennial workforce: who they are, what they want, what they need, and how to get the best out of them. It offers clear-cut guidance and best practice techniques for both managers and millennials as they continue to navigate the current and future landscape of work.
