Whose need does it meet? They are exchanging their time for dollars, and that does not work for millennials. Make sure your value-add meets a company’s needs.<br> * Become an intrapreneur. Manage your brand and focus on the parts of your business: P = performance; A = accessible; R = reliability; T = testimonials; and S = scalability.<br> * Uncover your purpose and passions, and then align them with your profession. This is the way to find fulfillment. <br> <br> Top Quotes:<br> <br> * “This generation is the generation that’s now starting to become the leaders in business.”<br> * “The world, frankly, is your oyster.”<br> * “I had this vision that we, as human beings, are going to need to evolve pretty soon.”<br> * “People want to achieve a little past success.”<br> * “Technology is simply an enabler for passion.”<br> * “We’re a generation that grew up with technology.”<br> * “Life looks very different in our eyes than it does in yours.”<br> * “That’s what the millennials are about – there are just no boundaries.”<br> * “You have to manage your brand as a professional business.”<br> * “Technology has become so infused in our culture. Become an intrapreneur – focus on your personal brand. You are now in business.”<br> * “What lights your heart on fire?”<br> <br> Guest Links:<br> <br> * Powered Life (<a href="http://www.thepoweredlife.com">http://www.thepoweredlife.com</a>)<br> * Peter Yobo International (<a href="http://peterfyobo.com/">http://peterfyobo.com/</a>)<br> * Facebook (<a href="http://www.facebook.com/peteryobo">facebook.com/peteryobo</a>)<br> * Twitter (<a href="https://twitter.com/PeterYobo">https://twitter.com/PeterYobo</a>)<br> <br> Resources:<br> <br> * Ryan Jenkins (<a href="http://www.excellence-expected.com/episode17a/">http://www.excellence-expected.com/episode17a/</a>)<br> * University of Southern California (<a href="http://www.usc.edu/">http://www.usc.edu/</a>)<br> * WordPress (<a href="http://www.wordpress.com">wordpress.com</a>)<br> * Alan Arlt (<a href="http://www.excellence-expected.com/episode60">http://www.excellence-expected.com/episode60</a>)<br> * LinkedIn (<a href="http://www.linkedin.com">linkedin.com</a>)<br> * Daniel J.
