Today, Millennials make up one third of the work force and in three years time they will be half. Demographics prove this generation is well on its way to becoming a dominant force both within and outside of their organizations.

According to a recent survey on B2B purchasing trends 73% of Millennials are involved in product and service purchase decision-making at their firms.

With different life experiences, values, mindset and decision-making lenses, Millennials are changing traditional operational norms across all industries, and corporate procurement is no exception.

As Gen Y Millennials (27-35 year olds) become the decision-makers du jour in their organizations, procurement teams that understand and embrace the Millennial mindset will deliver superior results for their firms.
