| "The Millennial Generation: Revolutionizing the Enterprise Workplace?" ctm. USC Institute for Communication Technology Management. This interactive workshop will seek to advance our understanding of the impact the arrival in the workplace of America’s newest generation, Millennials, born between 1982 and 2003 will have on how organization’s manage their work. Millennials have grown up with an Internet that is always on and available whenever they want it. They use it to bring their friends and their parents with them wherever they go—either virtually or physically. Eighty percent of all Millennials have a profile on one social network or another and use these new peer-to-peer technologies to find information and gather the opinions of their “friends” in order to make decisions. To accommodate this generation’s technological sophistication and new ways of thinking about hierarchy and expertise, organizations of all types will need to rethink their IT systems, governance rules and culture. This workshop is designed to explore this emerging phenomenon and provide ideas on how to address the challenges it presents.
