Gen Z values 4 tenets in the workplace

Expectations

Clear expectations offer Gen Z an internal locus of control that creates more mental and emotional stability around the workplace, reduces anticipatory anxiety in an increasingly uncontrollable world, and gives them the best shot at success.

Transparency

Before starting a job, Gen Z wants to know "anything you can't Google." In today's world, Gen Z can go online and learn anything they want within minutes. The unlimited amount of information available from online resources and social media enable this generation to make more informed, rapid decisions. Yet this level of access is also a curse - information overload and analysis paralysis lead, paradoxically, to less action.

Connections

Gen Z highly values social workplace connections. They want to learn about a co-worker's personal life to understand what makes their colleagues the way they are.

Respect

Respect in the workplace promotes positive mental health for a generation facing a daunting mental health crisis. Gen Z is vocal around advocating for additional mental health support, and expects their employers to respect this.
