Holiday Values October 2019 GENERATION NATION COMPANION REPORT Holiday Values ©Copyright 2019 Quester First, a little history … In 2019, Quester conducted a landmark project in conjunction with 747 Insights and Collaborata: GENERATION NATION 2019: Defining America’s Gen Z, Millennials, Generation X and Boomers This study provides a comparison of attitudes and behaviors across 4,012 respondents in these four cohorts, to expand upon current intelligence and cut to the core of what it means to be an American in 2019. Aided by technology, media, politics, and more, we can see Generational values shifting at a faster pace than We set out to not only collect information about each of we’ve ever seen before. these generations, but also to develop a deep The study is both insightful and actionable. Contact us to understanding about who they are, and their experiences. learn more about subscribing to Generation Nation. Today we are looking at attitudes and behaviors around the holidays to see what’s on people’s minds during this time leading up to and throughout the holiday season — we’re hauling out the holly. WHAT WE DID We set out to learn about people’s thoughts on the holidays and gift giving to uncover their true thoughts on the reason for the season. HOW WE DID IT We asked 416 people across four generations about the holidays, their general thoughts with a focus on the current holiday season that’s fast approaching. And when they shared their intimate feelings on things, we probed a little deeper using an AI-delivered conversation. WHAT WE ASKED We asked them to tell us about the upcoming holiday season … the ups, the downs … and about their plans … and about their gift-giving philosophy … and then we dove into brands and retailers to find out what people need from them to make the holidays (specifically the gift giving) better. We finally circled back by asking people about their own personal ideal gift in hopes to truly understand what’s important to them. Here’s what we found … The key thing we were after was to learn about how people spend both money and time over the holidays. And what do they value? But real quick: We thought we would find all the jolly holiday fun, but it turns out the holidays are kind of a double-edged sword. All the more reason to dig in. “Happy holidays” isn’t wrong … it’s just complicated and feels incomplete It’s an emotional time We spend time with loved ones and count our blessings But we don’t acknowledge that this can magnify the feels like (and we do appreciate and celebrate all those sadness and loneliness (blessings and loved ones aren’t blessings), and that triggers all the feels … always there). It’s a time to relax and enjoy yourself and your But somebody has to, you know, make the magic happen (sorry, it’s not loved ones really magic). And that can be a ton of stress and pressure … which is Of course! It’s the holidays! Time for the holiday not terribly relaxing. magic! It’s the most wonderful time of the year! But is it supposed to be this material and commercial? It’s still a favorite time for most — the food, the decorating, the gifts, the delight, the fruitcake! And just kidding on the fruitcake. No one mentioned it because it is the worst. And so weird. So how does this context impact what they value? And what they need? And how you can help them? Let’s break it down … TheWhat most are they enjoyable (all generations) aspects of theexcited holidays about? The things people look forward to aren’t surprising … Bonding (43%) And not surprisingly, across the There’s also all kinds of great squishy Food (38%) board, it’s the emotion (52%), like love and joy, people you’re with (81%) Traditions (30%) filling hearts across generations— particularly among females Gifts (28%) The appreciation for these Language Nerd Note: Another fun fact, emotion and food people only increases with age is pretty much also what we look forward to every day Some fun facts about variation: • Women are really focused on decorating. And gifts. And food. • Tradition is less of a focus for Gen Z It’s not all elves and • Millennials are much more likely to mention mistletoe though … TV and movies • Boomers are more likely to mention religious components of celebration What are people NOT looking forward to? Negative emotions, like stress, 34% are most often mentioned … and while it may not be surprising to learn that holiday stress is most often mentioned by females, it’s also more often mentioned among younger generations. Other Key Holiday Dislikes Mentions: — who you 30% Family “My family arguing when we are all in one room. see and who you They don't know how to control their alcohol.” don’t (especially among (Gen Z) younger generations) 18% “I can't buy the gifts I have in my heart to buy. Everyone Money always buys me something so nice and I like to And remember those people who enjoy reciprocate. Presents are not always cheap to buy.” (Millennial) gifts and gifting? That 28%? put GIFTS in the least enjoy bucket “I find least enjoyable the shopping part. I do not care for 27% 17% shopping plus I know that the people who don't have Shopping money to shop will be feeling bad. I don't like to think about children who get no gifts.” (Gen X) Interesting, right? Older generations feel the holidays have become “too commercialized" What are their plans? 53% 13% Plan to spend quality Pass the time with time with family various group activities 45% Eat like the apocalypse is coming while pleasantly Being with loved ones can be overwhelming so people get in smiling through the ugly sweater contest or some retail therapy, play games (naughty and nice) and do “just hanging out” outdoor activities 27% Exchange gifts 13% Decorate their homes — the tree gets “lit” 25% Have some type of gathering that gets everyone 5% Celebrate through their religious beliefs together Language Nerd Note: We don’t usually point out percentages of 5%, 13% Go on a holiday and get out of dodge but that’s kind of noteworthy (surprising?) to see religion mentioned so low for holiday plans. Right? It’s the holidays. The best laid plan are, well, plans. People head into the season with good intentions and strive to make positive lasting memories for all involved. How will they shop? 1 2 3 We start And we always Because the goal is Around Black Friday and Cyber Tell each other or make lists Not spending money on things Monday — you can’t beat (sometimes at Thanksgiving people don’t need or want the prices gatherings) Keeping it simple — often with At the last minute right before Focus on one big gift (or gift cards or cash (or at least a the holidays experience or money or gift gift receipt) … Something cards) instead of “lots of toys … practical!

I know you. common goal … Your happiness is my magic.” What do they need when they’re shopping? Sales, deals and a general Even though we asked them to think beyond price, 33% still went there 33% outcry for lower prices, (affirming it’s always a thing!)

(Millennial) So we know how they want to shop — but what do they want to give?

  • Using Love and Logic to Raise Resilient Kids – Dr
    Using Love and Logic to Raise Resilient Kids – Dr. Charles Fay with Dave Asprey – #832 Announcer: Bulletproof Radio, a state of high performance. Dave Asprey: You're listening to Bulletproof Radio with Dave Asprey. Today's going to be a fun show, because I get a lot of questions from The Upgrade Collective, which is my membership and mentorship group that you should check out. In fact, there's a bunch of Upgrade Collective members logged in live as I'm recording this podcast, able to answer questions or ask questions at the end of the show. I get a lot of questions about parenting and, "Dave, what do you do for parenting?" I think I'm a pretty good parent, but you know what? Every parent thinks they're a pretty good parent at least some of the time, even if they're not. Dave: How would I know if I'm good given my sample size is I had two parents? I'm going to compare myself to them. Everyone says I'm going to do better than my parents, which usually means you do exactly what your parents did even more or the exact opposite way your parents did even more. You guys have heard me talk about being vicurious, vaccine industry curious, in the middle, where I'm going to pay attention to all the different data sources, then make my own decision. It's hard to be a curious parent, because, well, you just haven't seen enough. Then what you do is you go to an expert who has seen a lot of parenting and studied it and say, "All right, well, what's going to work? What's not going to work?" Dave: Then you look for a believable, trustworthy expert.

Investing in excellence is a culture; it’s a commitment to our youth, families, employees, and the communities we serve. By becoming better team members, we enable better youth, creating a better society which creates a better world. Being better leaders means being more educated in all areas of our programming and care. Education is not expensive; ignorance is. The recent Leadership Conference in Nashville, Tennessee was a tremendous success in so many ways. Everyone in attendance came away with a sense of purpose and personal commitment to be a better leader and servant to our mission of helping at-risk youth across America. The purpose of the Leadership Conference was to unite and create a company-wide culture in delivering outcomes with fidelity and compliance, through a uniform and comprehensive process across the Youth Opportunity national continuum of care.

  • 20-1020 Discussion on New Public Safety Building
    Open Work Session Discussion on New Public Safety Building October 20, 2020 Mr. John Psota, Acting County Executive, Sheriff Mike Lewis, and Mr. Nick Rice, Purchasing Agent, came before Council. Mr. Psota said, as they progress through the Public Safety Building project and its latest projected cost estimate of approximately $28 million, the Finance Department was recently tasked with analyzing the prospective impact this estimate would have on the County’s long-term debt forecast and its debt policy. He said, given COVID’s budgetary impact and the Maryland State Bureau of Revenue’s estimate uncertainties, they applied estimated variables in this analysis to include the following: an interest rate of 3.5 percent on their debt; an applied 5 percent reduction in general fund revenue for FY22 with no general fund revenue for the next four years; and a capital project list of important funding needs over the next five years. He said, to be clear, there is an identified need for this Public Safety Building project. He said the purpose of this presentation is to fulfill their responsibility to provide the prospective impact that the capital projects listed could have on their future debt management and their future borrowing capacity. He said, for this presentation, he would like to introduce Pam Oland. Mrs. Pam Oland, Director of Finance, then came before Council and passed out handouts. She said, as Mr. Psota stated, she was asked to look at the availability of debt service and, moving forward, if they were to do this project, as well as other projects listed in their CIP, or potentially coming up in the next CIP.

  • Growing Consumer Culture Ruins the Spirit of the Holidays
    Growing consumer culture ruins the spirit of the holidays The turkey has been devoured and the pumpkin pie is soon to follow. The chitchat of distant relatives and the laughter of new baby cousins coming together for the first time this holiday season fill the warm atmosphere. This is the time of holiday spirit and family gatherings that only comes around once a year, starting with Thanksgiving and ending with New Years Eve. Unfortunately, increasing consumerism — best represented by spectacles such as Black Friday and Cyber Monday — poses a serious threat to the holiday festivities of the early winter months. Big corporations relish the holiday season. Holiday gift sales have consistently risen in past years, and they continue to constitute a major portion of retailers’ annual revenue. As a result, retail stores are making sure that this culture of consumerism remains strong. Black Friday has crept up earlier and earlier to the point where most stores now open on Thursday night, when many families are in the midst of their Thanksgiving feasts. Despite this, thousands upon thousands of people still cram into stores to battle for the best deals of the holiday season. Then as December rolls along, the lively Christmas music is inevitably accompanied by a constant barrage of commercials. graphic by Eric Zhong In addition, in recent years, online shopping has boomed. So far this holiday season, online sales are up 14.5 percent compared to just last year, according to the National Retail Federation. This ease of shopping has been a blessing for many but is also one of the reasons why consumerism has taken over the holidays.
