Generation Z is the youngest, most diverse generation in the workforce today. They are different than past generations.
With some describing them as “very technology oriented” and others saying they have “A little bit of lack of respect, sometimes, for older people. Positive thing, they’re inquisitive and they teach you a lot.”One study found one-third of Gen Z employees expect their organizations to provide modern technology.
These young professionals also value purpose in their careers. Managers can offer volunteer initiatives or mentor programs to make work more meaningful. Gen Z also requires praise, and lots of it. In fact, research found Gen Z needed praise from their supervisors three times a week, or 156 times a year – where millennials required recognition just three times a year and gen x only once a year.
Mental health is another priority for Gen Z. According to one report, 42% of Gen Z-ers have been diagnosed with a mental health condition. Managers can provide support at work by offering training programs, reducing stigma, and making sure mental health coverage is part of the company’s health care plan.
Gen Z is also one of the most culturally and racially diverse generations in the U.S. to date. Only 52% are non-Hispanic white, while 25% are Hispanic, and 14% are black.
