Constant management training needs to be curated where new learnings can be incorporated within collaborative environment. Millennials crave recognition, and thus companies must carefully note the insights they provide on how to improve the work. A conducive team environment must be developed as this also fulfils employees’ social needs. Occasionally the HR must also considering gauging employee business intelligence on their perceptions by activating anonymous surveys. The technology being used by the company must empower the employees and not burden them with rigid processes. Millennials do not want to produce work while suffering in their personal lives.
