Generation Millennials is ready to mark,but who defines them?

Generation Y is sometimes referred to as Millennials or Net Generation. The Millennials are the children of the Baby Boomers .Millennials, who are widely seen to be authors and architects of their generation who never sing praises about their identity and work. They let people of other generations to do this for them, define them, spread reviews about their work and talk about them. This departs the young generation as they believe in playing the game of claiming and spreading their work and thoughts themselves. It is for the older generation to defer and hold a powerful image.

Every generation is touchy and thoughtful about what they are called. Grant McCracken in his post said that much of the 1990s was taken up with people protesting attempts to create a name. The point was that the 1990s was to be extra-categorical and anti-categorical. The last thing Generation X wanted was a name.

Another strategy could be to accept whatever is given to you and be satisfied with a status quo inorder to escape the consequences and embraces the way it is delivered. He has also put forth that Perhaps Millennials are living under the deep cover of the term called Millenial. Presently, the workplace has become a psychological battlefield and the millennials have the upper hand, because they are tech savvy. They are multitasked; they talk, walk, listen and type, and text at the same time.

There can be many related explanations that Millennials are too varied for a particular label that can be apply to it. But they have fine control over the identities that they don't need to resort to big, poorly-defined memes like generational labels. Above all this, social networking tools help them to define themselves in a much complex and nuanced language.
