VIDEO TRANSCRIPT
In this video you will learn a creative and effective way to manage Millennials.

In the not so distance past, work was confined to a building.
Work was executed at a desk, bound by a physical location.

The technology shift from fixed communications to mobile communications has redefined where and how we work.
Work has shifted from a place to a space.

According to a 2015 study by Adobe, 87% of respondents said they check their work email at home.
The study found Millennials are more likely to check work email outside of normal work hours, with 70% checking email while in bed. And now mobile represents 49% of all email opens.

More and more we are squeezing work into the cracks of life…in line for coffee, on our way to a meeting, or while on vacation.

Since we are now enabled to work anywhere and anytime, it has become insufficient to manage people based on input, i.e., employees at their desks or time spent in the office.
Instead, today’s managers must manage outputs, the employee's results of a task or project.

Millennials specifically don’t view work bound by time or space.
In fact, 69% of Millennials believe office attendance is unnecessary on a regular basis.
Previous generations have defined company loyalty by tenure — how much time was input, but Millennials define company loyalty by impact — how meaningful was their output.

For managers ready to make the shift from managing input to managing output, here are a four tips.

#1 - Clearly communicate the desired output. (Provide real examples whenever possible.)
#2 - Consistently communicate timeframes for deliverables.
#3 - Frequently deliver relevant feedback via collaborative technologies, such as Slack.
#4 - If necessary, schedule a recurring time where your team can collaborate in real-time (online or offline).

The 21st century demands management skills that can transcend generations, time zones, and cyberspace.
Work has shifted, so should your leadership.
