Episode 51 | Tim Elmore | Leading the Next Generation: How Today's Leaders Can Unlock the Potential of Gen Z
In this episode of The Executive Leadership Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Tim Elmore, founder and CEO of Growing Leaders and author of The Future Begins with Z, to explore one of the most pressing challenges — and greatest opportunities — facing today’s executives: leading Generation Z.
As the age of authority declines and the age of maturity rises, leaders are navigating a new reality. Gen Z employees bring intuition, innovation, and digital fluency — yet often enter the workforce still developing key soft skills and emotional intelligence. With millions of seasoned workers retiring and a smaller generation stepping in to fill the gap, getting this right isn’t optional — it’s essential.
Dr. Elmore shares nine practical strategies for engaging, developing, and retaining Gen Z talent, including how to:
- Interview and onboard younger employees for long-term success
- Deliver firm feedback while protecting fragile confidence
- Motivate, mentor, and manage across generations
- Equip emerging leaders whose EQ matches their IQ
If you’re ready to move from frustration to fascination — and turn generational differences into a competitive advantage — this conversation is for you.
The future of leadership begins now… and it begins with Z.
