Selected to Present "Millennials at Work: Creating a Mobile First, Digital Environment" Today at ACUTA

(firmenpresse) - ORLANDO, FL -- (Marketwired) -- 01/10/17 -- Today at the , (AVST) has been selected to present "Millennials at Work: Creating a Mobile First, Digital Environment." Recent studies show that millennials (persons born between 1981-2000) make up the largest generation in the U.S. workforce. And, addressing the needs of this growing workforce segment will aid in the success and sustainability of any organization.
Millennials are the first generation of digital natives. They came of age during a period of rapid technology adoption; the first generation to grow up with digital communications in hand. This workforce segment is accustomed to social media, mobile messaging, smartphones and easy collaboration. They have an always-connected mindset and expectations of instant gratification.
"Millennials reject the concept of sitting at a desk working eight hours a day. They believe they can be productive anywhere -- from Starbucks to commuting in their car," said Denny Michael, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing, AVST. "The key for successfully integrating this demographic into a growing organization is to empower them with the tools they need to remain mobile and connected."
At ACUTA, AVST has been selected to present, "Millennials at Work: Creating a Mobile First, Digital Environment," on Tuesday, January 10 at 8:00 a.m. AVST will share how organizations can accelerate their use of smartphones, mobile messaging, and apps -- elements of the technology era with which millennials have grown up. Organizations that adopt a digital atmosphere will have a competitive advantage in engaging and retaining millennials. The discussion will focus on:
How to improve group and team dynamics by adopting new Unified Communications (UC) technologies to accommodate the millennial demographic
The most effective ways to promote a digital workforce
How to incorporate virtual personal assistants to engage and empower users
Where to draw the line between personal technology choices and enforcing security/compliance standards
