The Millennial Generation

After reading “Like it or not, Millennials will change the workplace”, I feel a sudden happy reassurance that the dynamics of the workplace will change from structured and conservative to flexible and creative. My generation sees the world in a different light, as a canvas ready to be stained with our ideas of innovation. With every Sauder Alumni I see following their dreams, starting companies and creating new technologies, I see ambition, dedication, and confidence brewing within them. It is not to say that this type of student used to be rare, but the idea of following your own agenda is becoming more prevalent. In the article, it describes the stereotype for my generation as being self-centered, and to a certain extent, I do believe that’s true. We are looking for ways to make ourselves happy, to make sure we enjoy life to the fullest, because you only do live once. With the millennials leading the way, businesses will head down similar roads like  Zappos and Google, as the human resources department will grow and will begin focusing more on the well being of their employees, creativity and overall happiness.
