What One Can Learn From Millennial Leadership Training

By Shirley Campbell


Although the previous generations view the millennials as a self entitled, rather weak, and spoiled generation, there is no doubt that millennials do have potential if they are trained properly. With the growth of technology and the accessibility of worldly information to people these days, proper millennial leadership training will teach this generation how to utilize these tools for success. These are some of the things that these types of programs will have to offer.

Now, before going into this, one must first understand how the minds of the millennials work. One of the major weaknesses of the generation Y is that they are a bit spoiled simply because during the time of their parents, the world economy was already improving from the depression. Because of this, millennials are actually spoiled by the previous generations because generation X parents had the desire to give as much as they could to make up for what they did not have.

Although the generation Y is more spoiled then the previous generations, they make up for it with their innovative mind and creativity. While generation X learned how to survive and rise to the top, generation Y is more creative and can come up with really out of the box ideas. With this kind of skill, it is possible for generation Y babies to really do well if they are given a chance.

The first thing that these programs would teach is mindset. As stated above, a big weakness of the generation Y is that they tend to get very self entitled with life which makes them not able to survive. The first thing that the program would teach them would be to develop the hungry mindset of survival first because in order for one to be a leader, he must first know how to survive in even the worst conditions.

Once one has already gotten that good mindset, then the next thing to learn would be the skills. Now, one of the most important skills to learn would be organization skills that would allow one to be very systematic. If one would want to lead people, then he has to make sure that he is systematic in order to ensure that his people can work in a good environment.

Of course, one of the most important parts of the course would be people skills. Since leadership deals a lot with people, one must know how to deal with people well. They must not only know how to delegate but also to motivate and to train as well.

With the innovative mindset and the tech savviness that the millennials naturally have, it would be easy to train them to not only create a creative working system for the work, but also to come up with a system for motivating and leading the people. One will also learn the importance of creating an emotional connection with the people in order for them to work well.

With the amount of potential the millennials have, it would definitely be a shame to waste it. This is why the generation Y needs all the training that they can get in order to do well. With this training, they can replace the leaders of yesterday and be the leaders of today.
