A replay of October 2024’s MBLS webinar.

Every generation loves to complain about the new and upcoming generation of employees. And often for good reason as they don’t always share the same values, work ethic, beliefs and skills as previous generations. In terms of skills that can mean a great influx of talent for new technologies or it could mean the lack soft skills of previous generations, like good communication, etc… No question, Gen Z influenced by the pandemic, the first generation raised fully on computers in the classroom and socializing their entire lives online represents a most unique generation. These and many other world events have deeply influenced this generation now entering the work force driving changes in attitudes, expectations, bringing fears and conflict that require a different leadership approach to successfully integrate this generation of employees into our workforce. By 2030, Gen Z will represent 35% of the workforce, so like it or not we will need to address the opportunities, challenges and subtle nuances of this coming and significant part of our workforce.
