The Millennials’ underlying desire to become social again
- About 46% millennials believe that the whole crisis has, in one way or the other, impacted their mental health.
- While millennials and Gen Z also appear to be exploring more new activities and rediscovering old hobbies, they feel a larger impact on their sleep and mental health than older generations.
- Younger generations are eager for their lives to resume to normal, perhaps because they feel safer than older generations in the advent of this crisis
- This mentality is exemplified when it comes to their attitude about going out and travelling. Gen Z are more eager to return to the cinema, with 57% expecting to do so within 2 months, compared to only 21% of Gen X. The same argument goes for holiday plans.
- Even when questioned about returning to work, we found that the millennial and Gen Z cohort mostly anticipates going back to office within 30 days post the lockdown.
- A detailed report by The Mavericks capturing various changes in attitudes around the crisis will be coming out soon.
