As seen in Time, USA TODAY, The Atlantic, The Wall Street Journal, and on CBS This Morning, BBC, PBS, CNN, and NPR, iGen is crucial reading to understand how the children, teens, and young adults born in the mid-1990s and later are vastly different from their Millennial predecessors, and from any other generation.
Because where iGen goes, so goes our nation-and the world..
And members of iGen also need to understand themselves as they communicate with their elders and explain their views to their older peers.
With the first members of iGen just graduating from college, we all need to understand them: friends and family need to look out for them; businesses must figure out how to recruit them and sell to them; colleges and universities must know how to educate and guide them.
More than previous generations, they are obsessed with safety, focused on tolerance, and have no patience for inequality.
They socialize in completely new ways, reject once sacred social taboos, and want different things from their lives and careers.
But technology is not the only thing that makes iGen distinct from every generation before them; they are also different in how they spend their time, how they behave, and in their attitudes toward religion, sexuality, and politics.
With social media and texting replacing other activities, iGen spends less time with their friends in person-perhaps contributing to their unprecedented levels of anxiety, depression, and loneliness.
Born in the mid-1990s up to the mid-2000s, iGen is the first generation to spend their entire adolescence in the age of the smartphone.
With generational divides wider than ever, parents, educators, and employers have an urgent need to understand today's rising generation of teens and young adults.
