Blum Perspectives on Millennials Development and Inclusion

An experienced consultant, Randall Blum is the CEO of Randall Blum Insight Consulting with offices in Dallas (Texas), Atlanta (Georgia), and West Des Moines (Iowa). His interests include Millennial professional development. At Randall Blum Insight Consulting, Blum offers strategic guidance to Fortune 500 corporations working in Millennial professional development.

The inclusion of millennials into the modern workplace undoubtedly will change how development, training, and business are handled in the future.

Compared to earlier generations such as boomers, Blum discovered through in-person research that the emerging generations view inclusion and diversity as fundamental to how an organization runs its affairs or does business. Many seek institutions where diversity and inclusion are an integral part of daily life. According to data from Deloitte, 80 percent of millennials cite inclusivity as key when choosing an employer. 39 percent would leave an employer or organization for a more inclusive one.

Millennials do not view programs at the workplace as the only way of fostering an inclusive work culture. They also want to see their mentors and leaders demonstrate inclusiveness in their behaviors.
