The Millennials

The recent issue of SideBars has a great focus: The Mellinnials. The tools we use, and the context in which we use them, significantly alters how we communicate, relate and think. "The millennials, who have just begun to make an appearance in the workplace, are being called the hottest commodity in the job market since Rosie the Riveter. They’re sociable, optimistic, talented, well-educated, collaborative, open-minded, influential, and achievement-oriented. They are arriving in the workplace with higher expectations than any generation before them and they’re so well connected that, if an employer doesn’t match those expectations, they can tell thousands of their cohorts with one click of the mouse."
