Baby Boomers (those born between 1946 and 1964) in the workplace.
How can you be sure to create an environment within your company
that is not only attractive to Millennials but will also help them to grow
into the best employees they can be?

work. So do a little company culture feng shui until you ïŹnd something

YOU TRY TO CREATE A GREAT COMPANY CULTURE:
1. Mission: Whatâs the purpose of your company?

Keeping these things in mind will give you some direction in establishing
a culture within your company; a great culture that gets reinforced and
brought to life through appreciation.

13. LET THEM
LEARN FROM THE BEST
Chances are most Millennials will have little to no experience in the ïŹeld
they want to work in and thatâs ok. What Millennials lack in experience
will be made up for in their desire to learn from the best. Give them
opportunities to grow and discover themselves and what theyâre really
good at. Create a mentorship mentality as you strive to help develop
this generation.

15. ALLOW FREEDOM
BEYOND THE CUBICLE
The cubicle is not the only place where work can get done. Allow your
Millennials to work where and when itâs best for them. ConïŹning them
to certain times will leave them feeling like theyâre trapped. Everyone
works differentlyâand as long as your organization establishes clear
deadlines and expectationsâyou have nothing to fear. Plus, this can
help you distinguish your dedicated, hard workers from the mediocre ones.

17. GIVE THEM ROOM TO GROW
Millennials like to know the position they are taking on has opportunities
for growth in the future. They want to be challenged and they want
something to work towards. No one wants to be stuck in the same
place forever. As you recruit Millennials, help them see the value of the
difference theyâll be making and what opportunities exist for them in
the future.
