Jenny Fernandez is an executive coach and professor at Columbia and NYU.

In this episode, we explore some of Gen Z's unique characteristics, such as being digital natives and the impact of "helicopter parenting."

Jenny highlights the challenges Gen Z faces, including communication skills, job security and concerns exacerbated by the pandemic.

We also explore the need for supportive work environments, effective onboarding, clear training paths, and why mentorship is important.

Jenny's tips for a happy workplace:

1. Set your employees up for success
2. Have a very clear training path so people know how to progress
3. Provide mentors and sponsors for employees
