This episode has a fantastic conversation with Dr. Tim Elmore and explores the nuances and realities in working with Gen Z.  Highlighting the importance of understanding individual circumstances rather than making assumptions is one of the key elements Dr. Elmore brings forward.   He emphasizes the need for empathy and communication to bridge the gap between different work cultures of the generations.

He also says that we need to get curious instead of furious and fascinated instead of frustrated.  His new book, The Future Begins with Z: Nine Strategies to Lead Generation Z as They DISRUPT the Workplace is out now!  I highly recommend that you go get it because it is full of such great strategies.
