Summary

One of the top reasons Millennials leave jobs is due to poor management. Millennials choose to work for and stay with “employers whose values reflect their own.” They place a higher emphasis on purpose as opposed to growth or profits. The three best ways for companies to provide a sense of long-term loyalty are identifying, understanding, and aligning with their values; supporting Millennials’ ambitions and professional development, and having a mentor. Additionally, the strongest ways to attract—and keep—the best working Millennials include a simple and sophisticated digital presence, and promoting a company climate that is positive and team-oriented.
