I agree with this (and I'm a Millennial myself - born in 1990). I couldn't help but think when reading this article, "how Millennial is it to tell other generations how to work with us?" There is a lot we need to learn from other generations and I think it's more important for us to learn how to work with them, than for them to learn how to work with us.

Obviously, there's no stopping the Millennial wave and we're an important demographic to think about when recruiting and building and organization, but I think Millennials sometimes need to be pushed out of their comfort zone to learn and appreciate other ways of doing things.

Margy - you do bring up some good points, those are all things Millennials want in a leader/organization. Something I've always appreciated in the companies I've worked for is the opportunity to take on responsibility and make an impact. I think that's one thing that drives Millennials, is the desire to make an impact. Make sure we have projects we can own and drive ourselves and be responsible for the success (or failure) of.

Good things to think about in this article, but agree that it should be a two-way street.
