An incendiary examination of burnout in millennialsthe cultural shifts that got us here, the pressures that sustain it, and the need for drastic change
Do you feel like your life is an endless to-do list? Do you find yourself mindlessly scrolling through Instagram because you're too exhausted to pick up a book? Are you mired in debt, or feel like you work all the time, or feel pressure to take whatever gives you joy and turn it into a monetizable hustle? Welcome to burnout culture.
While burnout may seem like the default setting for the modern era, in Can't Even, BuzzFeed culture writer and former academic Anne Helen Petersen argues that burnout is a definitional condition for the millennial generation, born out of distrust in the institutions that have failed us, the unrealistic expectations of the modern workplace, and a sharp uptick in anxiety and hopelessness exacerbated by the constant pressure to ';perform' our lives online. The genesis for the book is Petersen's viral BuzzFeed article on the topic, which has amassed over seven million reads since its publication in January 2019.
Can't Even goes beyond the original article, as Petersen examines how millennials have arrived at this point of burnout (think: unchecked capitalism and changing labor laws) and examines the phenomenon through a variety of lensesincluding how burnout affects the way we work, parent, and socializedescribing its resonance in alarming familiarity. Utilizing a combination of sociohistorical framework, original interviews, and detailed analysis, Can't Even offers a galvanizing, intimate, and ultimately redemptive look at the lives of this much-maligned generation, and will be required reading for both millennials and the parents and employers trying to understand them.
ROCK STAR MILLENNIALS takes a look at both sides of the exchange between leaders and Millennials to see how both sides can benefit. We'll discuss how we can best serve millennials as their leaders and mentors, and in return, how can they best serve us as team members, engaged employees and emerging leaders.
You'll see many real-life examples from a variety of companies including Nestl - Purina, Caterpillar Inc., Renewal by Andersen, McDonald's, and some smaller firms as well. These stories illustrate true leadership in action and provide ideas to apply in your own workplace.
Whether you lead Millennials and want to know how to attract, engage and inspire them or you are a Millennial leading others and want a fast-course in practical leadership development, this book is for you. In it, Kathryn features Rock Star Millennials who have used many of her proven Leadership Tools for self-management, personal productivity and mentoring to accelerate their own success and help others do the same.
You'll learn:
What Millennials want from their bosses, companies and leadership or learning opportunities
How to develop a culture of trust and transparency
Easy ways to give straight feedback and coach for success
A simple approach to creating a vision, proof of concept and business case to set a strategy

Описание: Jason Kirsch has good news and bad news. The bad news is that the 2008 Financial Crisis dealt a severe blow not just to our economy, but also to the financial health and readiness of many Americans. Nest eggs and home values plummeted in value. Millennials just starting out entered the tightest job market in years. The economy has since recovered, but not as robustly as we would all like. The middle class is shrinking, inequality is growing, and we can no longer count on Social Security and pensions to fund a secure retirement. The good news is that young investors, Millennials especially, are in a terrific position to be smart and savvy investors-at a time when (more than any previous generation) they can and must take responsibility for their long-term financial health. They are the most educated generation in history; they are more disciplined financially than they get credit for; and they are skeptical of conventional wisdom at a time when the options for being an independent investor have never been greater. Geared to the young investor, but with a wealth of helpful insights for investors of all ages, The Millennial Advantage cuts through the noise and clich of conventional wisdom and presents a clear-eyed picture of: - how markets work (hint: not always rationally) - what risk is, and is not - how diversification is important, but not a guarantee of success - how to avoid costly mistakes at the top and bottom of market cycles - how to put together a portfolio that works for you and your life goals The Millennial Advantage: How Millennials Can (And Must) Be the Next Great Generation of Investors is a critical read in a time when financial advice geared toward Millennials is rare.
This book will explain how to motivate Millennials and show you how to capitalize on the great potential of our often-maligned generation. To do this, we'll explain how to get past the stereotypes and explain who Millennials really are. You'll gain a new perspective as we shine a light on the family dynamics that shaped us. If you're a Boomer, we learned our values from you. If you're a Gen Xer, you share many of these same values. We'll also explore how to create the business structures and strategies that work to recruit, retain, and promote the best Millennials. You'll also learn how you can inspire us to do more and be more, how to realize our full potential and capitalize on it for your company.
If you're wondering if your company has to cater to Millennials, the answer is no. But if you don't, you'll lose out in the end. This book will show you why Millennial-friendly practices are great for business, and why these changes to accommodate Millennials are necessary in a fast-changing economy driven by knowledge and innovation.
Of course, we must remember that each person within a generation is different, as are their families and the circumstances in which they grew up. With that in mind, we believe our strategies will help you bridge the generation gap with the unique individuals in your organization.
Today people are living and working longer than ever before. This is the first time that so many people of different generations have had the opportunity to work together. And, thanks to technology, they are doing so in a variety of ways. We view this historic situation as a great opportunity and not as an overwhelming obstacle - which is unfortunately often the case. Knowledge sharing that encourages the cross-pollination of ideas can spark major innovation - if the different generations can learn how to collaborate in a way that capitalizes on their strengths and compensates for their weaknesses.
We can create successful companies in which individuals from every generation are motivated and inspired to do their best. The goal is not to just get along in the workplace; rather, it's to know, understand, and inspire each other along with growing the bottom line.

Описание:
Could The Millennials Generation Be The Greatest Ever?
By: Ramon Kleier
About the Author
When Mr. Kleier was six years old, and his brother was four years old, the motto, or the culture was: "Kids should be seen and not heard." Every Tuesday evening, their Paw-Paw would bring two of his sons with him to play Pinochle with their dad. The siblings respected his wishes and beliefs. So, they sat with their backs up against the wall, their legs laying flat on the floor, under their chairs (very small area). They had a school tablet and #2 pencils and wrote notes to each other, making fun of their conversations. They had more fun, choking back laughter, than the card players. Evidently it was at that time, that Mr. Kleier got the itch to write stories. In 2007, he wrote a book about his three brothers growing up in Schnitzelburg, a town with a very heavy population of German immigrants. Mr. Kleier befriended a historian professor at the University of Louisville. The professor helped him with the history of Schnitzelburg and told Mr. Kleier to let him see the finished copy of the book, The Four Kleier Boys of Schnitzelburg. That book, a hardback coffee table book, is now sitting on the shelf at the Special Records and Archives of the University of Louisville's Ecstrum Library. Mr. Kleier then contacted the powers at The Louisville Free Public Library. A copy of that same book is now sitting on a shelf at The Louisville Free Public Library. In 2018, Mr. Kleier wrote another book, What has happened to MY world living in Schnitzelburg?
