Mind&Body@Work
Gen Z is entering the workforce with new perspectives and expectations.
In this podcast, we’re here to listen to their stories and experiences – their successes and frustrations - and help employers understand the mindset and perspectives of the up and coming workforce.
Employers can’t dictate what their young employees find meaningful—what they can do, however, is empower them to create their own sense of purpose and authentic connections.
Our curriculum is designed to help them do exactly that, EV Leader Lab is committed to paving the way for more curious, engaged and connected, young professionals in the workplace.

Our guest, Guadalupe Reynoso Jiminez, is Leadership Development Coordinator
at Aliento, where she supervises their Arizona’s Future Fellowship
program. Aliento is a non-profit that
provides advocacy for, and support to, students as well as undocumented,
dacamented and mixed status families.
Lupe is also a product of Aliento and the first university graduate in
her family.
Lupe is an example of someone who sought out and has found
work aligned with her purpose. She believes Gen Z in general feels more
empowered to find fulfilling work – not just get a job. That being said, she also feels like the
environment is making it tougher to feel economically sound enough to do that.
Lupe relates that she has found it important for employers
to be a little flexible in how they expect the new generation to carry out
tasks and meet the stated goals rather than training them to do everything the
way it has always been done.
Lupe is so well spoken and competent that we were surprised
when she told us that her biggest challenge in entering the workforce has been
fighting back internal fear and self doubt.
And our audience may be surprised to learn what Lupe says she and her
friends talk about when they aren’t working.
In an upcoming episode, we’ll be having a conversation with
Lupe’s direct supervisor at Aliento.
