Abstract

When it comes to the workplace, millennials yearn for a work-life balance and to be in a learning environment where they can develop more than professional life skills. Anyone born between 1981 to 1996 is considered a “millennial.” Millennials are also known as “Gen Y,” and are relatively well aware of the digital presence in the society they grew up in since they grew up with the growth of the digital era. Millennials face different challenges as they enter the workforce since many of the workforce leaders are a generation or two ahead. Due to their career interest and degrees advancement, millennial leaders are known to enter the workforce earlier than other generations. This generation is known to turn down any career opportunity or job offer that does not align with their life values. Of all the challenges this generation faces in their lives, the “imposter syndrome” has become a blaring feeling that makes them feel invalid about the spaces they exist in.
