Millennial Leaders, how do we lead this generation and how will they lead us?

Millennials make up two thirds of our workforce and this is set to rise to 75% by 2025.  This new kind of leadership isn’t based on your title, age, gender, background or experience.  It’s all about your attitude and actions, how you think and who you are being.  Felicity helps the audience to lead without the title and create the change you want to see. Proudly presented by Saxton.

It's Who You Know - Network for Success
