Millennials Are Motivated By Their Peers' Success Stories
For many Millennials, the current state of the U.S. economy has made finding an entry level job tough, and establishing their careers is even tougher. But they feel inspired when they hear or read about the successes of their peers. Millennial expert Lisa Orrell, who is also a regular contributor to the CollegeRecruiter.com Ask the Experts blog, has devised a way to help Millennials get the insipiration they need.
"I've spent the past three years researching Millennials, writing about them, conducting seminars about them for corporations ... so I know first hand the power of this young generation and the impact they are making, and will continue to make," said Orrell in a recent press release.
Orrell's monthly podcast, "Millennials in Motion," debuted in October with a candid interview with Ryan Healy, the co-founder of Brazen Careerist. Orrell will showcase a different successful Millennial each month, in an effort to inspire and motivate members of her Gen Y audience who may be feeling discouraged by unsuccessful job searches or disengaged with unfulfilling jobs. She will focus on interviewing Millennials involved such pursuits as in philanthropy, entrepreneurship, business, entertainment, sports, music, politics, and entertainment, and she will also interview young people who have
overcome substantial personal obstacles to achieve their goals. In addition to her new podcast series, Orrell also has a new book, scheduled for release later this month, Millennials Into Leadership.
Sometimes the only thing a young college student or recent graduate needs inspire him to keep pursuing his dreams is to hear how his peers have made their own dreams come true.
