Millennials: The Digital Natives
Millennials, born between 1981 and 1996, are the first generation to come of age in the new millennium. Often described as digital natives, they grew up with the internet, social media, and smartphones, which have profoundly impacted their communication styles and worldviews.
Millennials are known for their values-driven approach to work and life, prioritizing purpose over profit and flexibility over stability. They are highly educated, with over 39% holding a bachelor’s degree or higher, and they have been instrumental in driving the gig economy and advocating for social change. Despite facing economic challenges, including student debt and the 2008 financial crisis, Millennials remain optimistic and committed to making a positive impact.
