Here’s a sneak peek at some of the research we’ve been doing with the Millennial generation. We asked a group of millennials to describe their biggest challenges working with senior management in their organizations, and this quote is priceless:
My biggest challenges have been trying to make them understand how knowledgeable and quick to learn I am. They assume we are at the same pace as they are, but when we [make a simple change in the word processing software], we are the most magical human being in the world. Trying to understand their work styles and knowledge levels is one thing, but trying to teach them is like trying to make a 2 year old take a nap. They will resist and simply make the younger individuals fix it or do it for them. I’m trying to be patient, but our voices aren’t heard.
