The Military Knows How to Lead Millennials

Guest: Colonel Robert Carr, U.S. Army Chief of Staff Senior Fellow, Kellogg School of Management, Northwestern University Stereotypes about millennials are two-pronged. On one hand, today’s young people are considered entitled, impatient, and overly sensitive. On the other hand, they’re ambitious, inventive and bold.  They’re also a real challenge for managers tasked with recruiting and retaining a generation of workers with very different ideas about how things should happen on the job.  Those corporate managers might take some cues from the military, which has one of the largest millennial workforces around.
