195: What GenZ wants from their jobs - and how to get them to stick around

What if your team isn’t burned out, they’re just over it?

In this episode of The New Manager Playbook, I sit down with Grace Lee, our new GenZ brand manager, for a raw, honest conversation about what’s really going on inside today’s workplace. Grace shares what it's like to be a 20-something navigating a job market that’s flooded, unstable, and full of uncertainty, and how that shapes engagement, loyalty, and motivation.

We talk about:

• Why Gen Z sees jobs like dating apps, and what that means for retention
• The pressure to stay in roles that don’t feel like a fit (and why that’s not laziness)
• The one thing every leader can do to spark loyalty, and it doesn’t cost a dime

If you’re wondering why your team feels disengaged, or why your best hires don’t stay, this episode will shift your perspective and give you practical steps to build real connection that keeps people around.

Listen now to hear how small shifts in how you lead can reignite energy across your team.
