OK BOOMER: GEN Z COULD BECOME YOUR BOSS IN 2025
Next year, your manager at work could look a little different since for the first time, more Gen Zers are entering management positions, according to a new Glassdoor report on worklife trends in 2025. Since the oldest members of Gen Z (those born between 1997 and 2012), will be 28 years old in 2025, some have had nearly a decade of experience in the workforce. They also make up just under 20 percent of the workforce, and based on these trends, one in 10 managers in 2025 will be Gen Z, Glassdoor said in its report that was published earlier this month. Recent surveys have found hiring managers are skeptical of the younger generation's ability to navigate a workplace environment. A recent Freedom Economy Index report conducted by PublicSquare and RedBalloon discovered 68 percent of small business owners said Gen Zers were the "least reliable" of all their employees. Meanwhile, 71 percent said these younger workers were the most likely to have a workplace mental health issue.
