Occupiers urged to prioritise millennials


EG Workplace Summit: Corporate occupiers must prioritise investment in millennials to avoid making mistakes with technology, according to a partner Deloitte Real Estate.

Chris Lewis, head of occupier advisory at Deloitte, said the “millennial factor” was unavoidable because they will make up 75% of the workforce by 2025. Speaking at the EG Workplace Summit, he described a juxtaposition between “trust and trend” because of the disparity in age between boardroom members and their younger employees.

He said: “The expectation around what the function of workplace is and also what the talent within that space are expected to do is really quite distant as a concept to a lot of the leadership in big corporates.”
