7-23 IAN Millenials

 Generation Y's Guide To Working With Older Generations.  I get these newsletters from Ag Careers.com from time to time and they turned up some interesting thoughts. Recently, there was a commentary on the younger generation that is labeled as Generation Y, also known as Millennials. Here is Erika Osmundson, AgCareers.com Marketing and Communications Manager. “ If you are part of this group, you should be aware of some positive and negative stereotypes about your generation. Stereotypes associated with millennials include the preference to work smarter, not harder and the desire for immediate feedback and rewards. Millennials are also seen as confident, curious, entrepreneurial, goal-oriented, tech-savvy, multi-taskers who can have a false sense of entitlement. How does a super high-tech millennial do on a tractor? That’s a great question. We are obviously seeing technology being integrated into agriculture, even at the production level, and tractors especially is a great example with all of the GPS and different technologies that are being put into tractors and so they can come in not only as producers but they are the ones that are helping drive the innovations in some of this new technology that our farmers can use.”
