From the Publisher
Nancy Cleary, of Wyatt-Mackenzie Publishing, publisher of Millennials Incorporated, states: We were excited to bring Lisa on as a new author because her book is so cutting-edge. Many books have been written about the Millennial Generation but they were written back when they were teens in teen-type jobs. Lisa's book talks about who they are now in their 20's and how they are impacting corporate work environments. The feedback has been great and the topic is very timely. This topic is being covered by major media like 60 Minutes, Fortune Magazine and Business Week so Lisa's topic and knowledge around it is really starting to be in big demand. We are very proud of her!

Must read for HR and Marketing Professionals
This is a great book to help understand the new generation, what makes them tick and how to manage them. This is the kind of information that a VP of Human Resources would love and I've already recommended this to several HR executives to help them with current recruitment efforts! Also very informative for marketers who need to understand this generation of millenials--working with them, recruiting them and marketing to them!

A must read guide to understanding Generation Y employees
If you saw the recent piece on 60 Minutes, you know that millenials are different. They have their own ideas of how they expect to be treated at work and if they are not, they up and leave and go to another company that will meet their demands. So what, you say? Well, watch out because a labor shortage is fast approaching and you are going to have to figure out how to motivate and retain millenials if you want to stay ahead of the business curve.

Millenials Incorporated is a great resource book that will quickly give executives and HR managers all the right pointers to not only motivate and retain millenials, but also to maximize the employer-employer relationship.
