Description: "Millennials are often stereotyped: they are 'entitled', seek promotions prematurely, and require constant praise. They see themselves, however, buried in historically high student debt and thwarted by an outdated workplace structure. This ground-breaking book is an indispensable resource to help millennials, gen Xers and baby boomers create a more effective work environment. ... [T]he book separates myths from reality, and provides practical advice, based on detailed research, to strengthen intergenerational teams and develop the next generation of talented leadership"--Book jacket.
