Misunderstood Millennial Talent cover

Corporate recruiters and employers tend to perceive Millennials as a major flight risk, not worth investing in because they'll be out the door in a year or two. Yet our data reveals this stereotype to be grossly misapplied. While Millennials with a financial safety net are far more likely than those who lack it to be a flight risk, they comprise a mere nine percent of this talent cohort. In Misunderstood Millennial Talent, we bust other myths about employees between the ages of 21 and 34 to stress the imperative to talent specialists of investing in this next generation of leaders.

"Millennial talent experts Joan Snyder Kuhl and Jennifer Zephirin tackle this thorny issue with much-needed clarity and finesse. Through compelling research, stories, and narrative, Misunderstood Millennial Talent provides an invaluable look into what the invisible majority of Millennials--the Ninety-One Percent really need and want. An essential read that belongs on the desk of every leader as the people agenda and Millennials have to be the focus of every leader." --Kirk Kinsell, CEO and President of Loews Hotels and Resorts "An enjoyable and insightful read that provides up-to-theminutepractical advice, whether you're already seeing an increasing shift in Millennials to management roles or looking to increase awareness about managing them and attracting more young talent to your company.
