COPING BY CONNECTING

Gen Xers look at the world through a filter of relationship. It is not surprising that they are coping during this crisis by tapping into those relationships and keeping them strong. They were also the most likely to prioritize family at 36% (B: 18%, Y: 32%).

The life stage of many Gen Xers has them navigating this crisis with kids at home. Many are taking advantage of the time at home to build strong bonds with the family under their roof as well as reaching out to friends and loved ones.

LEADERS: How are you encouraging connection while being careful not to burn your team out? Does your team have access to you? With virtual meeting calls bringing our home lives into the office, now is the time to acknowledge our humanity and embrace more of what each of us bring to the team.
