This is how it LOOKS TODAY •  Every GeneraJon sees itself as the “BEST”

•  And no doubt a lot of us have heard endless……… “Hamare Zaamane Main STATEMENTs”

•  Every genera5on sees itself as being different and special, however, the truth is that the basic DNA remains the same, it is the way we think and the belief system that are crea5ng the differences. And these differences are all hard wired into our brain due to the Major Events that have happened during the forma5ve years of each of the Genera5ons

•  In the World we live in, human nature remains more or less the same.

2015 Deloiie Millennial Survey

Barry Salzbery – CEO of Delloite Global When looking at Career Goals, today’s Millennials are just as interested in how a business develops its people and its contribution to society as they are in its products and profits. To deal with this way of thinking, the Business community needs to change the way they engage with Millennial talent or risk being left behind.

The Indian Millennial •  With a populaJon of 1252 million (2013 World Bank est.) we

are the second most populous Country in the World marginally behind China.

•  And at last count we had close to 600 million people who would fall into the category of “Millennial”. This is double the populaJon of the US.

•  In spite of the a^tudes and lifestyles that describes the Global Millennial, the Indian Millennial brings to the table a combinaJons of tradiJonal values & cultural perspecJves.

•  A study by JWT supports this and have coined a new term for the Indian Millennial – “Tech Savvy TradiJonalist”.


The Indian Millennial

•  As against in the West, you are quite likely to find the Indian Millennial staying as a part of a large extended family. A^tude towards ge^ng a “good bargain” remain deeply ingrained in the mind-‐set.

•  According to some studies, over 70% of the Indian Millennial support tradiJon and preserve family values.

•  A new generaJon of Indians is joining the Workforce even as we speak and trust me, they are not bound by any “dictates” that were bestowed upon us like – developing naJon, under-‐developed, poor or like – This is a generaJon of “hungry for success, the rich and upwardly mobile.”

Millennials -‐ The Primary WORKforce and they are in a hurry, impa5ent and more.

•  Close to 95% of the WORKforce are a MIX of Baby Boomers, Gen X’rs and Millennials.

•  And the biggest segment is the Millennials who are being in most cases being managed by Gen X’rs.

•  To be able to effecJvely lead this group, we need to win the hearts and the minds of this group – and to do that we need to understand them a bit
