Jaquetta Ross joins us to debunk common misconceptions about Generation Z in the workplace and shares insights from her 12 years of working with this young adult population.

• Gen Z is often mischaracterized as entitled, naive, and lacking work ethic when they actually crave mentorship and genuine connection
• They're exceptionally good at recognizing authenticity and will respond to leaders who are real with them
• Many Gen Z behaviors stem from watching older generations be "fake and miserable" in professional settings
• Building relationship before offering criticism is essential - you must earn the right to be heard
• Gen Z needs emotionally mature leaders who are as invested in their success as their own
• Their sensitivity often comes from questions about belonging rather than inability to handle feedback
• They bring unmatched creativity, sincere commitment, and willingness to challenge outdated systems
• Once they find their purpose, they "lock in" and hold everyone accountable to standards
• To lead Gen Z effectively: be straightforward, don't pander, build security within yourself, and be genuine
