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.

These qualities can unite employees. But they can also create tension with success factors such as efficiency ratings, regulatory requirements and creating laser focus to meet stretch goals.

Great leaders walk those tensions skillfully.  When leaders understand  their natural style and its inherent weaknesses,  they grow  more effective over time.

How can the next generation of leaders learn about their teams, what they need, who they are and how to unite them?  The People dashboard offers a holistic view of how one leads.  Through it, individuals will see their predominant leadership style, learn how they engage with others, discover their mindset leanings and uncover their self-awareness level.

Through insights provided on the People dashboard, before long millennial managers will have workable strategies that help teams unite, compromise, stretch and at times let them soar in their independence.  Investing in this type of leader will help your organization retain employees and will attract top talent.
