Henrik Bresman, INSEAD's associate professor of organisational behaviour and academic director of the INSEAD Global Leadership Centre, and Vinika Rao, executive director of the INSEAD Emerging Markets Institute, have an interesting discussion of the place of Generation Z (born 1996-2002) in the scheme of business:

"As older workers delay their retirement age, they are faced with having younger bosses, whose digital skills are becoming at least as important as the loyalty or experience of their older colleagues. For the younger workers, fighting the many myths perpetuated about their generation's purported laziness, sense of entitlement, need for constant advancement among other issues, is an unnecessary burden to counter. Generational stereotypes and tensions abound."

"The research sheds light on preferred workstyles, Leadership qualities, hopes and fears about future careers, and the technologies with the highest potential for workplace innovation. What's more, the research points to interesting insights and lessons not just meant for understanding individual generations, but for knowing how to manage a multigenerational workforce."
"The INSEAD Emerging Markets Institute, Universum, the MIT Leadership Centre and HEAD Foundation have recently collaborated on a study covering over 18,000 people across 19 countries, from the three younger generations, Gen Z (students born between 1996 to 2002), Gen Y (students and professionals born between 1984 to 1996) and Gen X (professionals born between 1965 and 1983) with the aim to understand whether generational differences are real and the impact they will have."
All the best,
