Description:
In this episode, I am speaking with Sophie Wade who is the author of Empathy Works: The Key to Competitive Advantage in the New Era of Work. We are going to talk about the newest generation in the workplace, generation Z, and how we need to adapt to them.
This is a timely subject as people are now returning to the office at least part-time and generation Z entered the workforce during the pandemic. I am all for the multigenerational workforce but generation Z is starting their careers in very uncertain times. We will discuss many aspects on how to work with and manage our younger generation Z colleagues and employees.
