Millennials: "They've experienced their Boomer bosses and said to themselves: I'll do it differently"
Millennials are 32 to 45, well-educated, often in leadership positions – and are increasingly questioning their lives. Why? And what sets them apart from Gen Z? An expert provides answers.

Millennials, who have followed the traditional path of education, internships, and hard work, feel that they have been misled as they are not achieving the promised security, career advancement, and prosperity.

Many Millennials are now questioning their career choices and seeking new paths, such as job changes, self-employment, or relocation abroad.
