The millennials are taking over!
Sensational isn’t it? Millennials have often been looked down upon, words like entitled are often thrown around to describe us, often unfairly due to the the different sets of challenges we have to face as compared to other generations. Well, science can pretty much explain a lot about that statement and why millennials are seemingly making better entrepreneurs so here are 3 things female millenial entrepreneurs are doing differently.
Change up the culture
It’s no surprise that generational culture-shifts are massive and how businesses were ran in our parents times is completely different to how they are run today. Female millenial entrepreneurs are doing differently by making it more about quality and less about quantity. From flexible hours, to the simple office get-together on weekdays where you talk about everything EXCEPT work. The effect of this? The work life balance is being struck quite well and you know what they say about happy employees.
Getting with the program
Keeping up-to-date is no longer a maybe. It’s a necessity in order to survive the harsh winds of business and the new and improved millennial entrepreneur knows this. In this age of the information super highway, being early adopters of technology and business trends is ingrained in every millennial mind and this completely shifts around the idea of business, albeit in the right direction.
Its not about the money
Personal career choices have always held a greater purpose other than just financial fulfilment. While this ideology has been around since the dawn of time, it is just now making its way to the top in the corporate world and not just as a personal ideal. Millennials are driving businesses to be more ethical and society-focused as opposed to having financial performance as the sole metric of success. The results? Well, people are striving for more and are not eager to punch in that 5pm unless they are absolutely sure that their objectives for the day have been met. Self fulfilment is a prudent motivator.
