MILWAUKEE, Nov. 17, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Instead of climbing the corporate ladder, American Millennials are focused on learning the technical and personal skills to ensure long-term career security, according to a study released today by ManpowerGroup (NYSE: MAN). Millennials prioritize pay and purpose. Asked about their career goals, 28% say making a positive contribution is a priority, followed closely by earning a lot of money (26%) and working with great people (19%). They are looking for work they believe in and learning the skills to build a 'career for me.'
"Millennials want employment security and are pursuing a 'Career for Me' to get it. They see traditional managerial paths as less appealing than learning technical and personal skills," said Mara Swan, Executive Vice President, Global Strategy and Talent at ManpowerGroup. "Loyalty is a two way street. To cultivate the next generation of leaders, employers need to show Millennials how taking on managerial roles aligns with their long-term career goals and will help make them more employable in the future."
