be again. Being in the middle of the Baby Boom generation, and of course hanging out with other Baby Boomers we talk about how spoiled the young are now, just like our parents thought we were spoiled. The GOP wants to go backwards in time, its not going to happen, Most Baby Boomers (unless wealthy) and most Millennials are Democratic. You are not going to pollute more and you are not going to take away our SS and Medicare, and we are all sick of the elites running everything. We have worked hard and we want what is coming to us, and the Millennials are not going to put up with working 12 hour days, 6 days a week, just to get by and have health insurance that covers nothing, and stuck in a job due to a preexisting condition. You are not going to force fundamentalism down their throats, and PP is going to continue. The GOP had best wise up.

What motivates this rising cohort? How do you keep them engaged, earn their trust and get the most out them? Leadership and millennial experts weighed in with a few surprising—and surprisingly easy—ways to inspire millennial workers.
