Millennials on the Move: Preparing Emerging Leaders for Frontline Management

Session Description    

The workplace has changed dramatically with the entrance of the millennial generation. By 2020, they will comprise 75% of the workforce--they have already surpassed Generation X as the largest generational group at work. There's a lot of hoopla right now about the strengths and weaknesses of this generation, but one thing is clear: as baby boomer retirements continue (19,000 a day for the next decade), our first line leaders and team managers likely will be drawn from the millennial ranks.

Organizations that have not developed retention plans for their millennial workforce are already experiencing the cost of churn as these workers leave their first jobs. Seeking continuous learning, as well as the opportunity to lead meaningful projects that make an impact in the world, millennials go where their skills are valued and developed. It can cost $25,000+ to replace a millennial employee, but the retention solution is right in front of any forward-thinking organization: develop the skills of your emerging leaders now and prepare them for increasing responsibility in their first management roles.
