From entering the workforce to mental health and what matters most right now in life, I had the privilege to explore the minds of two bright and opinionated future business leaders of Generation Z.  

Let's ask ourselves: 

• How connected do you feel to the youngest generation of the workforce today, Gen Z? 
• How distant do you feel to this generation? 
• How much of a lack of understanding do you have about this group who grew up with technology integrated into their entire life? 
• Do you know what motivates them or what makes them tick? 

In this episode, Tiffany Lo & Jennifer Qu, Ivey Business School (my alma mater!) undergraduate business, finance and accounting majors both have no shortage of confidence in what they like and dislike, yet somehow still feel apprehensive about what the future holds...yet, don't we all?

We talk about many relevant topics that are spoken about in the workplace today. I hope this will give you a perspective about pertinent topics that you can consider building into your corporate policies and guidelines for building a conscious and caring business.
