Beyond the Job-Hopping Myth: Why Gen Z Turnover Signals a Leadership Crisis, by Jonathan H. Westover PhD
Abstract: Gen Z's shorter job tenures have often been mischaracterized as disloyalty or entitlement. Emerging evidence suggests that these patterns reflect unmet expectations around meaningful work, career development, and organizational support rather than generational fickleness. With entry-level opportunities contracting sharply and artificial intelligence reshaping skill requirements, Gen Z workers navigate unprecedented uncertainty while demonstrating high technological fluency and adaptive capacity. Organizations that frame this cohort as "a problem to solve" risk forfeiting competitive advantage. This article synthesizes recent workforce analytics, organizational behavior research, and practitioner interventions to reframe Gen Z mobility as a signal of leadership gaps rather than character deficits. Drawing on cross-industry examples and evidence-based retention strategies, we propose four organizational imperatives: transparent career architecture, embedded developmental support, AI-enabled self-directed learning, and redefined psychological contracts that emphasize growth over tenure. Organizations that recalibrate their talent systems around these pillars position themselves to attract, develop, and retain the workforce that will define the next decade of competitive performance.
