So perhaps you have not encountered this yet, but the millennial generation is different. What’s a millennial? In short, they are the upcoming generation that is currently graduating from high schools and colleges and will be for the next decade. This generation is quite special though. They possess a completely different sensibility around both work and networking that the prior generations don’t have. As we look towards the future of creating innovation and collaboration networks, one of the major concerns is how to create widespread adoption for these programs. For the millennials, this is not a concern as they are completely used to networking through social network sites and tagging technologies that the rest of us will have to get used to. Their minds also seem to work in a different way that our older brains don’t seem to be wired for.
