Leadership strategies for coaching and connecting with Gen Z rather than commanding
The changing nature of work ethic and purpose across generations

Connection and coaching are more effective than authority when leading Gen Z.
Gen Z values purpose and flexibility in work, often seeing jobs more like hobbies.
Micro-entrepreneurship is growing rapidly as many young people seek autonomy and reject traditional corporate models.
