Wow !!! You too are definitely living for delivering WOW darling, as does your entire generation. It makes me so happy! There is nothing I want to add. Except to repeat your magnificent language: "Let me repeat: You cannot manufacture culture" And so it is. Guess is time to start walking your talk huh? In any case let me tell you, it is much less stressful ...and by the way so much more productive... Bravo! for that one. Here is my article after I left the corporate under-culture for ever. It reflects my passion about this subject. http://www.soulhangout.net/11/ . There is a book mentioned in the article that talks extensively about the culture. Basically, recognizing that if you want numbers you cannot treat people like numbers. Because they make the numbers. What a concept ah? It's name is "Execution" The authors are in the article. Was published around 2004. Written by two enlightened CEO's pioneering the change of mindset. Have a great r week end Travis and thanks so much for being who you are.

Amen to that . We compromised our integrity and you guys are not willing to do it. I commend you for that. We the boomers have to pass the torch of sustainability to you. You guys are totally prepared to handle it all you need is a little support. Her is an e-Book by my friend Scott Degraffenreid. He is the person who has done the most mathematical accurate study. The e-book is free. Feel free to pass it around. It is and amazing document of acknowledgment. http://bigbusinesszoo.com/millennials.php

Ditto!!! Travis, thank you for naming the historical moment as Indeed a revolution. I apologize on behalf of my generation. I have published every article and study about Millennials and the work force in my blog. I am an advocate for Millennials. What strikes me the most is the complete inability Boomers have to step on your shoes and see the world WE created and are leaving behind through the eyes of YOUR experience. You are mirroring us. Is not like we are leaving a paradise world behind us. Shame on us for not taking responsibility for our actions and our cowardice to step out of comfort zone denial. After all, we showed you our illusion of the American dream in real time. I can hear you thinking with so much reason and justice. "Yes you had your malls and your SUV's and your picket fence house and you acquisition addiction and your beloved corporation that sucked the life out of you transforming your humanity into a number, enslaving your time away from your family. The American dream that turned Health Care, education and war into the most profitable businesses in the world and all of us in guinea pigs. The American dream that turned the economy into a giant speculating casino...and you want me to be a part of that? Are you kidding me? I saw you suffer through it and I experienced the painful abandonment of your presence. Your attention. Thank you very much but I don't like your world. It doesn't make sense to me". Here is the thing. We were the first and thank the gods most likely the only generation that fell for the carrot hanging from the stick in front of the donkeys nose. Most women went to work because society decided work was more important than being with our children. We took it also because the times demanded a second salary to sustain a family. We fell frivolously in the trap of devoting much more time to our corporation than to our children. How can we blame you for refusing to be part of such a mess and being so clear about your priorities. You are right, this is so fascinating that we need to be having the conversation. I will re-post this in my blog. Spread the word. There is a lot more to say about the amazingly clear thinking you
Millennials have developed through your unique (scientifically supported) experience. We are in this together and we need to support you to create the world you envision in cooperation, co-creativity, critical thinking, community collaboration and transparency. It is time to leave behind the mindset of competition and separation. It is just not sustainable any more.
