MaXXYou provides coaching for millennials

Three quarters of younger people have stress and burnout complaints and they most often feel tired from work and agitated. Especially for these millennials MaXXYou has a coaching trajectory. Millennials are under heavy pressure. Their work must be inspiring and challenging, their journeys far and exotic, their hobbies unique and successful. What if these people can't post a successful image of themselves on social media? Who are they if they fail, or are "average"? Young people are not only busy because of a full agenda, they also have an existential task of ultimately 'having to be themselves' and following their hearts. What they do has to make sense and add value. Often they don't know where to look for all that.

Millennials compare themselves continuously

Previous generations call them spoiled. But the parents of millennials helped shape their children through their ideals of self-realization and malleability. Raising children has become a project. Education focuses on performance. And social media added a dimension we’ve never had before. As a result, young people are exposed to comparison material for up to five hours a day. They measure each other and themselves nonstop. They always assess what that experience looks like on the outside. This way they’ll never experience flow or the immersion in their activity. These characteristics ask for a very specific skill set when it comes to coach and mentor this young generation. MaXXYou provides coaching for millennials because Yvonne Looije recognizes their specific needs and issues.

Coaching millennials

The first step coaching millennials back to a healthy mindset can be seen as 'back to the basics': sleep well, eat and exercise, so that that body is activated again. Next to this here are some ways to coach and bring millennials back to a more healthy mindset.

• Let them discover their intrinsic motivators

Millennials are used to being externally motivated. That is to say: they have always been rewarded with all the praise, diplomas, cups and money. As a result, they do not yet know what intrinsically motivates them and they are impatient about their career. Yvonne Looije helps them discover their intrinsic strengths and motivators, so that it is also possible for them to grow personally.

• Coaching helps to find the pitfalls

Millennials respond good to coaching. Effective coaching ensures that millennials develop faster. If a millennial is frustrated, bored or is not in the right place, coaching with Yvonne can help make this visible quickly.

• Connect

Millennials are used to having something to say. Their parents raised them this way: they were allowed to participate in decision-making at an early age. The growth of the internet has also given them a voice from an early age. They also want to make that voice heard in their workplace. They want to feel that they are contributing to the whole. Yvonne Looije will help them find that voice.

• Motivate with flexibility

Millennials don't necessarily have to follow a linear career path. As long as they feel like they are moving. For millennials, networking events, on-the-job training and (temporary) secondment to other employers are good ways to explore the organization and other jobs.

All in all Yvonne Looije at MaXXYou applies a holistic approach and builds upon a foundation of meaningful starting points to base her coaching for millennials on. One more reason to involve MaXXYou and Coaching with Yvonne when you are in need of support for your younger employees.
