Brought to you by the APF, this Wednesday November 20th 4-6 pm EST is Millennials by Millennials, a digital campfire focusing on, what else, Millennials, the generation born roughly between the early 1980s to the early 2000s.  Houston Foresight’s own Emily Empel (grad program 2012)  will be co-hosting with Jason Swanson (current student), who will also be a speaker along with current student Katie King (nee Bishop).

From the ProFutures blog:

Read any blog, magazine or Tweet and there’s no shortage of commentary on Millennials. Everyone wants to own an insight to change our generational exchange. Entire books focus on how to motivate Millennials at work. Message boards provide tips for parents hoping to secure employment (and housing) for their college grad. These headlines and stories are focused on the near-term. But what happens when we begin dig deeper than headlines? What are the Millennials doing to create the future? What stories are the Millennials telling about themselves?

Stories can change the way we think, relate, or act- subsequently shifting our collective future. On Wednesday, November 20th the Association of Professional Futurists (APF) is hosting a digital campfire on Millennials by Millennials (MbyM). The APF will livestream ten minute experience jolts shared by Millennials. Anyone is welcome to join. We’ve structured MbyM as part story sharing, part sensemaking session.

You’ll first hear how Millennials are shaping the future. Our presenters will share their insights, research, and personal stories in an attempt to cut through the noise. We’ll then invite you to join our presenters (and the Twitterverse) to find common themes, ask bold questions, and share stories.

If you’re interested in joining, please register here. We also love buzz. Highlight the session via your blog or on Twitter #MbyM. Thanks!
