In workplaces across the globe, the next generation of leaders is arriving. It is estimated that 75% of the workforce will be millennials by 2025. By that date, millennials will also out represent boomers in leadership roles. Do these up-and-coming leaders have the skills to lead? PeopleBest is measuring critical intelligence to help organizations ensure they do.
As millennials move into management, they bring a new brand of leadership. What are the characteristics that set them apart? Based on several studies, millennials as a whole are more purpose driven. They care about culture and social responsibility. They have a participative leadership style, exhibited by collaboration, two-way communication and friendliness.
