Communication Is At The Core Of Success

It’s common to struggle with how to manage millennials in the workplace. They have communication demands distinct from other groups – and which savvy managers must understand if they’re to form successful working relationships.

Millennials are attracted by visually-rich content, delivered in compelling ways, using contemporary technology. Failing to communicate with them in this way is to invite a disrupted workplace and missed opportunities.

Extra Features Make Managing Millennials Easier

Managing millennials in the workplace can be challenging. Special features of the SnapComms platform make this easier and more effective for internal comms and HR managers.

  • The pop-up notification format ensures higher cut-through for priority messages and higher response rates than traditional survey tools
  • Targeting settings permit updates, surveys or any other comms to be delivered to selected groups only. For example, all millennial employees, or only those in specific departments
  • Recurrence settings allow unviewed video alerts to ‘pop up’ a specified number of times as a reminder to millennials who haven’t watched it to do so
  • Reporting options provide access to detailed information on message opens, clicks and interactions - allowing managers to identify who has engaged with messages and which messages have been more successful, providing valuable insights to improve future comms
