In a world where both the parents are pursuing their respective careers, Millennials learn to stand on their feet without any aid or 'au pair'. For them, every dawn ushers in an opportunity to learn something new, something valuable, and something by which they can contribute to the society.
“When you look in the mirror, you have to feel comfortable and confident with the image that you're carrying. Be okay with being yourself"
Irrespective of the fact of whether you call them Millennials or Generation Y, they shall continue to remain restless but audacious, and one, who shall always walk the talk. Born during the 80s or after, Millennials are most spoken about today; at the work place or elsewhere. For a moment, let us contemplate on what makes them the toast of many a discussion. The concept of 'work-life' balance which seems so daunting to us all is non-existent for this breed. For them, the mantra is a 'work-me balance', a term that best defines their outlook towards work and life.
There are many who consider Millennials as lazy, vocal, and having a care-a-damn attitude. The truth, however, is that they were taught to be independent since they were toddlers. In a world where both parents are pursuing their respective careers, Millennials learn to stand on their feet without any aid or 'au pair'. For them, every dawn ushers in an opportunity to learn something new, something valuable, and something by which they can contribute to the society. On many an occasion, spending time with their families tops their life priorities, and imbibing new knowledge follows suit, but they take great care to save enough time for leisure of their own private lives as well viz. friends, outdoors or simply exploring life.
The Millennials belong to the digital age, who work 'on-the-go', are ever eager to pursue new skills, multi-task, and prove to be a valuable asset, irrespective of where they are, and come with no expectations.

Continuous Learning For Growth
Of late, for organizations particularly in the service sector, people have become the strategy. And, if that is the case, the Learning and Development (L&D) department in organizations, and the industry in general, is likely to witness significant growth in 2017 and the years thereafter.

Striking The Right Balance
In 2017, an employee in the HR Department of a leading global company received an excel sheet attachment in his official mail. While the content seemed harmless, it was in fact a well disguised Ransomware attack which had in fact placed several companies worldwide in the dock. Ransomware attacks targeting HR departments across the globe have since been in vogue since they possess valuable employee data which can be used to commit crimes such as tax frauds and the like.
The Multifaceted Advantages Of AI
AI can speed and automate data collection, make fundamental observations, systemize HR issues, and differentiate customer and employee profiles.
