At Evergreen, we know becoming a successful innovator of change requires enthusiasm, courage, confidence, limitless passion, and total grit. We’ve discovered that young people, as well as those who are young at heart, typically embody all these traits. What’s more, they are still exploring the world, so they perceive taking risks and facing challenges as exciting adventures. That’s why investors love these young innovators so much. Here are some of the other favorable qualities we have identified:
They’re Resilient: All innovators face failure from time to time – no matter how old they are. As such, the ability to bounce back is paramount to success.
They Think Differently: The older people get, or the longer they perform certain routines, the less likely they are to think creatively. Their fresh minds enable young founders to think outside the box.
They Value Diversity: With the internet at our fingertips, the world is far more accessible than it used to be. People from the millennial generation have grown up with the ability to connect with people from all backgrounds. The willingness to engage and collaborate with individuals who have varying perspectives is a must in the world of business.
Our team members at Evergreen hope you embrace all the possibilities young change agents have to offer. As we can attest, they have the potential to transform the world.
