Challenges for the MILLENNIAL generation! Interview with "Simon Sinek".

My notes from a Simon Sinek video:

4 Greatest challenges facing the Millennial generation
 
Parenting
 
- Failed parenting strategy
- Over encouraged
- Over indulged
- Lower self esteem
 
Technology
 
- Facebook and Instagram world, pursuing likes! (Release of dopamine)
- Children only need the approval of their parents; teenagers need the approval of their parents and peers
- Deep meaningful friendships are not being developed
 
Impatience
 
- Grown up in a world of instant gratification
-  Everything you want except for what you really need like job satisfaction and meaningful relationships
- They see the summit but not the mountain that needs to be climbed
- Challenge is that they will never find true love, joy or peace
 
Environment
 
- They have been dealt a bad hand
- They get placed into corporate environments that want to treat them like numbers and cogs in a wheel, rather than humanising them
- Lack of good leadership is compounding this issue within them
- Companies must pick up the slack on how to nurture the social and life skills that they didn’t get from their poor parenting environments
- We must create mechanisms that allow for meaningful interactions
