[quote]That’s the “bullshit” establishment part that millenials hate. I can understand the feeling because “showing up and being there” has nothing to do with pure economics and merit.quote]
Exactly. I don’t think just cause you have grey hair and a fancy title doesn’t make you the smartest person in the room, nor does it make you immune to questions. Some people may think this is being disrespectful, but that’s the way we think. We are also “show me” people. You say that you make the company this much $, then show me. Most things are quantifiable and your value to the firm in many cases can be as well. If you preach about what it takes to be a good leader, then show me your great followers. If you are telling everyone how good of a parent you are then show me your kids. If you preach about how to make money then show me your tax return. We are a skeptical bunch cause we are smart and we are tired of hearing so much BS. Being in the information age data is plentiful, so filtering is key.
