Millennials And Gen Zers Step Into Leadership

What A Day

About this episode

It's 2025, and if you're a Millennial or Gen Zer, there's a good chance that you are qualified to manage and lead other people, even run for political office. Yes! Even you, the person who shares "I'm just a baby" memes! But taking that leap into leadership can be super intimidating, especially when it feels like the qualities needed to be a 'good leader' have changed so much in the last 10 to 15 years. Amanda Litman, co-founder and president of Run for Something and author of the new book 'When We're In Charge,' shares some tips and tricks for the next generation of leaders.

And in headlines: Trump administration officials projected confidence after a weekend of trade talks with China, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky invited Russian President Vladimir to meet with him for direct peace talks in Turkey, and White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller says the administration is considering suspending the constitutional provision that allows people to challenge their detention in court.
