**Are Millennials really the most studied generation in history?**

‘Oh yes, they are,’ says the US Chamber of Commerce foundation.

This young generation of workers have intrigued many research analysts over the years. Their creative acumen, work hard play hard persona and tech-savviness helped redefine the way work gets done and delivered.

Amid the post-pandemic trauma and transformation, there’s an interesting development gaining some attention.

Millennials have come of age to assume leadership positions in their organizations. According to LinkedIn, the global population of millennials in the workplace has reached an astounding  41.4% and will remain a majority till 2030.  

So, millennials won’t just be serving us. They will also be leading us.

But if you know a thing or two about their ambitions, you might have already guessed what it means— The war for talent.

Millennials change jobs more frequently than others. About six in ten millennials are open to new job opportunities.

So retaining your millennial employees is going to be crucial for businesses in this post-pandemic era.

![Retaining-Millennials-in-the-Workplace-300x123.png](https://skillbook-cms-prod-latest.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/Retaining_Millennials_in_the_Workplace_300x123_7513e8314b.png)

## How to Attract and Retain Millennial Employees

Being born in the age of technological revolution influenced millennials both personally and professionally. For them, experiencing the well-known and exploring the unknown are not two different things.

These attributes manifest in their workplace personas and priorities as well. So, opportunities that **fulfill both their wants and needs** intrigue them more often than not. Here’s what you should consider if you want to intrigue millennials in the long run.

### 1\. Give Millennials What They Want and Need

![Millennials](https://skillbook-cms-prod-latest.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/Millennials_406aa71c7d.webp)

### 2\. Improve internal communications

Millennials want to be involved in every aspect of the business. They want to see that their work is contributing to the growth of their company. That is why employers should enrich internal communications to keep them informed and motivated.

They prefer ongoing conversations to replace annual reviews. Be it texting, tweeting, liking, or face timing, their choice of communication is on-point and on time. This dramatically affects the workplace because it influences productivity and workplace engagement.

Since millennials are **avid users of mobile technology**, they expect their employers to enhance workplace communications using mobile technology.

We’ve already seen how handy mobile devices are during our remote work phase.

### 3\. Support learning and development

Companies that invest in their people’s learning and development interests have **lower turnover rates.** Millennials understand how important these upskilling and reskilling opportunities are to progress their careers.

According to a report by Statista, the average training hours per employee increased to 102.6 in 2020 from 44.1 in the previous years. These numbers show how much your employees want to accentuate their potential. However, such a huge leap in learning activity may punch a hole in your pocket.

That’s what makes **e-learning a delightful solution.** With the available technology, you can offer live online classes, virtual workshops, and on-demand courses and provide personalized learning opportunities to your employees.

### 4\. Offer career growth opportunities

During their formative years, most millennials were told that they are capable of achieving anything in life. This not only instilled confidence in them but also a craving for responsibility.

That’s why a clear path for career progression is the most valuable offer to retain a millennial. Moreover, they want this career growth to happen much more rapidly. [91% of Millennials consider the opportunity for rapid career progression](https://www.robertwaltersgroup.com/content/dam/robert-walters/corporate/news-and-pr/files/whitepapers/attracting-and-retaining-millennials-UK.pdf) one of the most important things about their job.

There’s a common belief that millennials pursue paycheck more than anything. But when you compare their salaries with those of other generations, you will clearly see that’s not always the case. Millennials are pursuing status, societal influence, and recognition. That’s why rapid growth opportunities always win the bargain against paycheck.

To attract and retain millennials in the workplace, employers must communicate to their people that they are willing to **offer Leadership roles, international placements, and many more growth opportunities** to them.

### 5\. Ownership Empowers Millennials

**Employee empowerment** is all about giving people ownership of their work and allowing them to make decisions on their own. However, many organizations are not sure about how to do this.

As we are already in the moment, it’s time to delegate crucial responsibilities to millennials. With their affluent creativity and concern over their influence on the organization, millennials are more than capable of pioneering change.

When employees feel empowered in their organizations, **they are 20% more likely to stay in their roles** according to a survey by TINYpulse.

## Are Millennial Employees Really That Disloyal?

You would be surprised that the answer to that question is actually a big No.

In a survey conducted by Robert Walters group, it was found that **41% of millennials anticipated having five employers or less before retirement.** Only 23% of Generation X and 29% of Boomers had the same intentions.

This clearly shows that millennials are prepared to spend more than 10 years at single organization in a career spanning over 45 years.

Keeping this in mind, investing in training and development of Millennial workers does not only ensure their retention but a secure future for your organization.
