Neil Howe, Founding Partner and President at LifeCourse Associates, best-selling author and national speaker, is a renowned authority on generations in America. He gives readers and audiences powerful insights into who today’s generations are, what motivates them as consumers and workers, and how they will shape our national future. Howe’s broadly cyclical perspective—oriented around familiar generational life stories—will put "the long term" into a stunning yet personal focus that will not soon be forgotten. Howe has coauthored several books on generations with William Strauss, Generations (1991), 13th Gen (1993) and The Fourth Turning (1997).

Today on the Financial Sense Newshour with Jim Puplava, Neil Howe discusses the influence of social media and technology on politics and industry. Obama targeted various social media outlets while campaigning. Jim and Neil also talk about the Millennial Generation and its influence on society and politics.
