An effective way to set expectations with millennial employees is to do it verbally and by being transparent, specific, and systematic.
Put It in Writing
Besides from setting verbal expectations, putting expectations in writing is a crucial way on onboarding and retaining millennial employees.
Module Nine: Mentoring the Millennial
Millennials are used to a high level of interaction; that is why they thrive when they are mentored. They need to establish mentoring relationships during the onboarding process because it helps in conveying the message of the organization. Millennials value recognition and having time and energy invested in them.
Topics to be discussed include:
Be Hands-On and Involved
Millennial employees value mentors who are hands-on and who are more involved.
Serial Mentoring
Serial mentoring is part of the onboarding process by which one employee is being mentored by several more experienced employees who expertise in different areas of the organization.
Be a Mentor, Not an Authority Figure
They are skeptical of authoritarian relationships; that is why mentors need to strive to be collaborative rather than dictatorial.
Focus Millennia’s Exploratory Drive on Work
One common criticism of millennials is that they have short attention spans and cannot focus on the task at hand, but despite all that is, they are skilled multi-taskers.
Module Ten: Assigning Work to the Millennial Employee
One of the essential things that employees can learn in the onboarding process is how they will assign work, the expectations present in work, and how they will reward or compensate their employees. Managers need to keep in mind when assigning tasks to their millennial employees is their need for structure, specific guidelines, and clear expectations, and feedback.
Topics to be discussed include:
Provide Clear Structure and Guidelines
Providing clear structure and guidelines is considered as one of the critical components in onboarding.
Provide Specific Benchmarks
Millennials often seek out benchmarks or specific points wherein they can have their project be evaluated.
Set Boundaries and Provide Reality Checks
Setting boundaries can help millennials whenever they may over or underestimate what they can accomplish within the time and with the availability of their resources.
Guide, Don't Dictate.
Making sure not to dictate is also crucial in guiding millennials and allowing them to find their methods and solutions to the problem.
Module Eleven: Providing Feedback
Giving feedback is a vital part of onboarding and nurturing millennial employees. Taking the time to provide quality feedback helps in making millennials feel that the organization is invested in them and their success.
Topics to be discussed include:
Millennials Thrive on Feedback!
Millennials are used to a feedback-rich environment, and they are used to being recognized for their contributions.
Characteristics of Quality Feedback
Being able to give quality feedback is considered a skill because feedbacks are more than just affirmation of quality performance or criticisms.
Informal Feedback
Millennials value informal feedbacks because it frequently will build rapport with millennial employees.
Formal Feedback
Millennials value more formal feedback regularly and including developing goals for improvement and recognizing their growth.
