According to a recent millennial leadership survey from The Hartford, 80% of millennials see themselves as leaders today.

Despite serious concerns about widespread corruption, conflicts, the effects of climate change and missing opportunities for social and economic inclusion, young people remain optimistic. Of the respondents to the Global Shapers Annual Survey 2016, 70% of millennials see the world full of opportunities and 50% believe they can actively contribute to decision-making in their countries.

Millennials face numerous challenges, from record levels of debt to a rapidly evolving employment market. But it seems that much of the stress and anxiety reported by twenty-somethings is caused by something else: ruthless comparison with peers.

Millennials have been labelled lazy and unproductive but a new report suggests the opposite may be true.
