As the Manager of Talent Acquisition EMEA at Bentley Systems, Inc., and a seasoned professional with a background in psychology and human resource management, Oreoluwa was recently a featured speaker at HR Vision 2023 in Amsterdam.

At the event, Oreoluwa shared his insights on a critical topic: “Attracting and retaining millennials to your organization.” In today’s competitive job market, the Millennial generation plays a pivotal role in shaping the success and longevity of modern organizations. Europe, in particular, is facing demographic challenges, with its aging population and a decreasing active workforce. Oreoluwa emphasized the importance of engaging and retaining millennials to ensure the continued growth and sustainability of businesses and society.

During his session, Oreoluwa delivered key strategies for organizations to attract and retain millennials. He highlighted the significance of understanding the unique needs and expectations of this generation, which makes up a significant portion of the current workforce. According to Pew Research Center, as of 2021, millennials accounted for 40% of all U.S. workers. However, only 15% of them stay with their organization for more than 15 months. Oreoluwa’s session aimed to bridge this gap by providing critical insights into effective HR strategies.

“Attracting and retaining millennials is not just a choice; it’s a necessity for the future,” Oreoluwa emphasized during her presentation at HR Vision 2023. He continued by stating, “In today’s evolving job market, millennials are the game-changers. To ensure long-term success, organizations must prioritize engaging this dynamic generation.”

Oreoluwa’s insights shed light on the demographic challenges facing Europe, as he pointed out, “Demographic shifts mean that we’re on the cusp of significant workforce challenges.”

His session provided crucial strategies for HR professionals, as he concluded, “The HR landscape is transforming rapidly, and understanding millennials is key to staying ahead.”
