New research reveals a disconnect between what Generation Z actually wants at work and what their bosses think they want. As Gen Z increasingly enters the workforce, here are key challenges and gaps that leaders should address to support their newest generation of workers.

Gen Z is one of the main drivers of change in today’s workplace. Defined as the generation of individuals born between 1997 and 2012 (who in 2023 are between the ages of 10 and 25), Gen Z grew up with smartphones and social media, along with the associated conveniences and pitfalls. They are often the trendsetters, the trend-enders, the influenced, and the influential.

Gen Zers are no strangers to using their voices and the technology at their fingertips to shape the world around them. But as Gen Z enters a workforce dramatically altered by the pandemic, how does their impact translate to the workplace, and how can their bosses create a space for them to thrive?

We went right to the source and surveyed Gen Zers to better understand their perspectives. Do they really want it all? What can we learn from this generation about the future of work? New research from Deloitte Digital explores just this.

As the saying goes, “You don’t quit a job; you quit your boss.” If you work with Gen Z, we encourage you to read on and learn how to create a healthy and winning work experience for you, your employees, and your customers.
