Last weekend my wife forwarded me an article that hit her right between the eyes. And to be honest, it did for me as well. It was a parenting piece that focused on one of the rampant problems we deal with in our house: toys. The gist of the piece is that our kids have enough toys and that buying them more just makes them more bored and more hungry for the next thing.

Popular mythology, particularly among America’s older generations, imagines that kids today are born knowing how to use smartphones, computers, and tablets. Before they so much as crawl or exclaim, “Ma-ma!” they seem to intuitively know how to swipe, snap, and scroll on touch screens. While this might be an overly generous assessment of youth skill, there is another talent common among millennials and other younger generations that is of similar utility in the modern world.

“I’m so sorry, I need to reschedule our one on one meeting again.”. When employees hear that, they will likely either feel relief, frustration, or anger.
