What It Is

Now on the edge of retirement, forward-looking leadership is paying attention to the transformative force on the near horizon: Generation Y. Born between 1980-2000, conservative estimates place them at 75 million, with only approximatly 10% in the current workforce. Do not doubt they will have as great, if not greater, of an influence on how we work as their Baby Boomer parents did.
