LEADERSHIP'S ROLE IN MOTIVATING MILLENNIALS : A study of how organizational leaders motivate millennials in the workplace.

The authors of this bachelor thesis have concluded that along with previous studies, organizational leaders focus on extrinsic motivation strategies to motivate employees and do not take into consideration each individual's internal motivation. It was also discovered that organizational leaders focus on fulfilling the lower level and higher level needs of the employees, known as the hygiene factors and motivators. Furthermore, it finds that leaders do not differentiate between younger and older employees in their motivational strategies. Together, these findings mean that perhaps the correct strategies or techniques to motivate particular groups of employees are not being realized in practice by leaders, motivating the need for further studies, especially from the millennials’ perspective.
