Show Notes Chapter Markers
Thank you so much for tuning in! On today's episode I am joined by two guests from both sides of the Atlantic - Lily Fothergill from the UK and Pranam Lipinski from the US. Both are Gen-Z experts in their own right and ways. Through conducting research, working with organisations, universities and Digital Natives themselves. In this conversation we talked about Gen-Z greatest potential as well as some of the dark sides of being a Digital Native. This episode is packed with practical ways of finding, engaging, communicating, employing and getting the best out of Gen-Z in the workplace.

Gen-Z now is the largest generation in the world, having just surpassed Millennials, and within next 5 years, they will be the biggest workforce entering the labour marker. So what can you do to prepare? This is what we unpacked on this podcast episode.
 
Gen-Z expect Inclusion before Diversity as a standard! Therefore, having a culture of belonging is key! That has to go hand in hand with transparent and honest communication, authenticity and safety (both financial and emotional).

And remember, Gen-Z know when you DON'T have Gen-Z in the room and you are creating content for them after reading "Tips for Instagram content"... so get to know Gen-Z!

On this episode you will hear:

1) What is Gen-Z greatest power and biggest potential?
2) How do Gen-Z manage their time while always staying connected?
3) The dark side of being Gen-Z.
4) Protecting your energy in this digital world.
5) How do companies need to redesign workplace experiences for Gen Z?
