Reasons for the Business Success of Millennials

​Randall "Randy" Blum has served as president and CEO of a consulting firm. Under Randall Blum's leadership, the Dallas, Texas-based company guides and supports a client base of Fortune 500 companies in the acquisition, training, productivity, and satisfaction of millennial employees.

Presently comprising more than 35 percent of the United States workforce, millennials have become successful business leaders for various reasons. Business reporter Helen Cartwright points to millennials' respect for achievement and their sheer entrepreneurial ambition as reasons for their impact on the business world. While previous generations were happy to wait until their mid-30s before establishing their own companies, millennials are far more likely to go into business for themselves during their 20s.

In his assessment of millennial success, Inc. contributor Peter Economy notes the professional advantages of their willingness to embrace change and their resourceful "can do" attitudes. They also benefit from their high-tech proficiency, commitment to personal development, and ability to accept and learn from critical feedback.
