While this position didn’t require that I paddle, my enthusiasm had me do so anyway as I wanted to participate in our progress.

When I stopped to think about the common millennial characteristics we hear about so often, I realized how many of those same traits are also prevalent among entrepreneurs. How we outwardly demonstrate these traits may look different, but at the core our values are shared. I believe this is an [opportunity for tremendous results](https://blog.eosworldwide.com/blog/5-reasons-to-improve-your-company-culture) if managed from a place of shared values and effective communication.
