INTRODUCTION

The arrival of the Millennial Generation on the employment landscape means that a more diverse multigenerational workforce is becoming the norm for most professions. This change in the workforce offers challenges and opportunities for O&P employers and residency directors as this generation is said to have distinctly different behaviors, values, and attitudes from previous generations. The first occasion for many employers to face these opportunities may come when considering candidates for a formal residency or when hiring a younger practitioner in the first few years following that practitioner’s certification. This article will explore strategies that employers can adopt to help navigate intergenerational dynamics and build mutually satisfying, long-term relationships with members of the Millennial Generation.
