Millennial Survey – Highlights Updated Material – Aug 2014
Background •
INSEAD, The Head Foundation and Universum have embarked on a project to better understand the Millennial generation (those born 1984-1996)
•
The overarching goal is to be able to better understand many of the pre-conceived notions that exist about this generation
•
The vehicle driving the process is a global survey that was conducted by Universum in June-July 2014 along with existing extensive Universum Student Survey results and a CEO survey that is being carried out in August 2014
•
The responses have been gathered through the Universum panel, external panel providers and Facebook campaigns
•
With a record 16,000+ respondents it the world’s largest of its kind
•
Why is this important? The Millennials will make up the majority of the workforce in just a few years. From an employer branding perspective, companies that cater to the needs of the Millennials will have a head start in terms of attracting, recruiting and retaining them.
