  • What Gen Z Wants Around the World
    Dec 23 2021

    It is no secret that Gen Z is different. This guest featured on this episode of The Generational View is a reminder that although Gen Z may be different, not all are created equal. We speak to an individual who has lived in an impressive six countries, when he’s only in his twenties. He does not speak for all Gen Zers around the globe, but he certainly has a unique worldly perspective to share with you and reminds us how truly connected we all are.

  • Parenting the Passion in Gen Z (Part II)
    Dec 16 2021

    Through our What Gen Z Wants series on The Generational View, I am even more hopeful about Generation Z soon leading in workplaces and institutions. It’s no secret that Gen Z is different from any previous generation, and these most recent episodes of The Generational View are meant to help us understand how parenting has played a role in that, from shaping their values to shepherding their experiences.

  • Parenting the Passion in Gen Z (Part I)
    Dec 9 2021

    In the last four episodes here on The Generational View, we’ve heard about Gen Zers from those who teach them and engage with them in schools, and those who manage them in the workplace. In the next two episodes of The Generational View, we’ll hear from those that do these things as well… just in the home… holding down one of the most important and toughest jobs in the world - parents. It’s no secret that Gen Z is different from any previous generation and these episodes are meant to help us understand how parenting has played a role in that, from shaping their values to shepherding their experiences.
