Who is Generation Z? What can we expect from them and what do they expect from us? What can we provide so that they can both contribute to and flourish within workplaces and societies?
This talk explores the students entering our universities and workplaces today. Dr Zachary Walker looks at their lifetimes and how what they have seen, done, and know impacts how they learn, work, and play. Understanding this, we can create the best strategies for how to teach and lead them in our learning organisations and businesses.
