Too scared to fail: Millennials aren't starting businesses

[Paleo]

I was at a business conference this week and one of the main speakers said "Whoever learns how to lead Millennials is going to win." But he offered no suggestions on how to do that. I don't know and I don't think he knows either. Especially since the industries we are in involve physical work which is done outside. I'm sure Millennials consider this a violation of some UN human rights treaty.

I do have a lot of hope for Gen Z though. Judging by what appears online their activist cadre has a remarkably sophisticated understanding of what was done to the generation before them by the oligarchs (media, tech, finance) and they are pissed off.
