While research has started to debunk some millennial stereotypes, a gap between this cohort and their predecessors persists. In response, two studies were conducted with matriculating millennials to reveal the expectations they hold regarding typical leader behavior and leader-member relationships. The studies establish millennials’ views and communicative and relational expectations of leaders and also help to answer which leader communication behaviors are likely to be valued and potentially most effective with this cohort. This research puts millennial self-report data in conversation with extant research to offer new insight. Suggestions for instructors and managers are included.

千禧一代对领导者沟通和关系行为的看法和期望：探索年轻人谈工作

虽然研究已经开始揭穿一些千禧一代的刻板印象，但这一群体与其前辈之间的差距仍然存在。作为回应，针对即将入学的千禧一代进行了两项研究，以揭示他们对典型领导行为和领导-成员关系的期望。这些研究确立了千禧一代的观点以及对领导者的沟通和关系期望，还有助于回答哪些领导者的沟通行为可能受到重视，并可能对这一群体最有效。这项研究将千禧一代的自我报告数据与现有研究进行对话，以提供新的见解。包括对教师和经理的建议。
