Chip EspinozaMillennials are an easy group to identify in terms of their appearance and are therefore highly subject to being stereotyped. When a negative stereotype about a group is relevant to performance on a specific task, it is referred to as "stereotype threat."

Chip EspinozaWe have to be emotionally intelligent. It also means that what works one day may not work the next or what works for one group of people many not work for another.

Chip EspinozaI am concerned that Millennials are stressed out. They have a higher suicide rate than other generations at their same age. They have the highest diagnosis of depression at their age than other generations. I think we have raised a generation that does not know how to be sad. They are programmed for success and the threat of failure is devastating.
