Millennials Are the New Slackers. Heres another one of those fun HBR blog posts where a blogger from one generation pontificates on the failings of a younger generation, and gets taken to task for it in the comments. In this case, the blogger is Andrew McAfee and his target is the "entitlement mentality" of many Millennials.

This is another one of those posts challenging the assumption that as Millennials storm their way into the workforce theyre going to radically change the landscape and force organizations to adapt to their idiosyncratic ideals in order to harness their power and survive. Millennials arent any different. Millennial: Yes we are!

Research demonstrates that millennials think about and define diversity in significantly different ways than members of previous generations. Millennials are more focused on "cognitive diversity, or diversity of thoughts, ideas, and philosophies." First, it's good to see Joe Gerstandt getting some love in the association community.

Its a survey of more than 3,000 executive directors of non-profit organizations and, although it seems weighted towards charitable and social service organizations, there are a few interesting parallels and tidbits for associations.
