JCI

“If you could change one thing about the way your generation is perceived by institutions, what would it be?”

That’s a real question in the 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵 𝗦𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝘂𝗿𝘃𝗲𝘆. Most people have an answer ready.
The rest of it asks what your education left out, what’s really blocking you from leading, how your workplace handles mental health, and what global networks have actually delivered for you.

Here’s the part that matters: the full dataset gets published. Not a summary, not a highlights deck. All of it, including whatever it says about JCI and AIESEC. We’re asking questions we might not like the answers to.

Most of it is tapping. About 15 minutes. Seven languages. Anonymous.
