035: Millennial Mania with Lee Caraher
Lee Caraher separates fact from fiction when it comes to millennials, and discusses how to work through intergenerational conflict.
You’ll learn:
1) Just what defines a millennial, exactly? And why do 72% of us reject the label?
2) What’s actually different about millennials vs. traditional generational bashing?
3) How to coordinate well cross-generationally.
About Lee
Lee Caraher started Double Forte in 2002 to work with good people, doing great work for good companies. Her friends and colleagues call her “The Millennial Whisperer.”
After struggling with how to work well with Millennial clients and now staffers (more than half of Lee’s staff is under 35) and then working to figure out how to make that work, Lee has written a positive and practical book about the topic, “Millennials & Management: The Essential Guide to Making it Work at Work.”
She served as the Vice President of Corporate and Consumer Communications at the $1.6 Billion SEGA of America—their youngest US VP. She then served as Executive Vice President of The Weber Group and Founder and President of Red Whistle Communications, both Interpublic companies. Lee is active in the community and currently serves on numerous boards.
A graduate of Carleton College, with a degree in Medieval History, which she finds useful every day, Lee lives on the Peninsula with her husband, two sons, and their blind cat Al.
