Gen Z
Teenagers started a huge national movement that adults could not – or would not – do. Are there any takeaways for C-Suite executives and HR professionals?
Yes! A titanic shift in workplace demographics is taking shape. Over the next couple of years, today’s teenagers will combine with Millennial – already the biggest segment of the workforce – to significantly impact how we do business. Together, they will be over 65% of the labor market. Additionally, Baby Boomers are retiring at record numbers. Result: Revolutionary change at speeds we have never seen before.
