Tech Society 012 - Gen Z: Purposeful or Entitled?

Born in the time of broadband and overlapping social media noises 24/7 - what to make of this generation?Memes and avatars aside, Gen Z changemaker Elizabeth Knight shares an insightful view with Alex and John from Ninja Software on the pressures facing the youths of today. With many changes ahead in the future of work, are our young people equipped to find their place in the workforce? A useful starting point is for universities to re-examine the traditional model of dispensing blocks of knowledge which are not preparing Gen Z sufficiently for the fragmented career pathways in their lifetime.Like the youths of any generation, they are a source of innovation. What can we do in our own organization to unlock the opportunities for young people in the workforce?This is Elizabeth’s mission, empowering this generation to find their own purpose to make meaningful choices.https://www.purposeful.org.au/Tech Society podcasts are accessible across these platforms: Website:  http://www.techsociety.fm/    LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/techsociety-fm/?viewAsMember=true Spotify:  https://open.spotify.com/show/0STaLU0ATmS9dEyey4Fwjv    iTunes:  https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/tech-society/id1516405840Google:  https://podcasts.google.com/?q=tech%20societyTwitter:  https://twitter.com/TechSociety
