Managing the Generation Z Workforce | Talent Management  

Generation Z is the freshest generation to join the business world. This generation is well-known for being born in the age of mobile technology starting in the mid-1990s. There are varying precise years from different sources, but they agree that the generation starts in the middle of 1990s to 2000s. The generation is expected to be more flexible due to the influence of technology.

Recruiting these new talents is the latest challenge for talent management. To handle this impending issue, getting information about the generation will help you get prepared. There are notable personalities that can be commonly found among Generation Z.

Responsible

Their sense of responsibility comes from being born in the age where technology is simply at the tap of a finger. Independence is learned at an early age and education is not extremely hard to access with the help of an internet connection. Learning through their efforts, even if it is as simple as a key press, is a step towards responsibility. They would not ask too many questions. Instead, they would be finding the answers for themselves.

Gives Importance to Relationship

Unlike the days where most of the families are classified as the nuclear type or extended type, families can be in the form of different sorts. It can be the single-parent, same-sex parent, or even grandparents who bring up their grandchildren. This variety of family orientation does not undermine the importance of the relationship; rather, it enables it to be stronger. Living in a different household that is different from the usual in older times makes the people born from generation z more mature at an early age. This maturity teaches them that prioritizing relationship is crucial to living a happy life. Despite being born in with the easy access to technology, this enhances the importance of relationships and how being physically available for the other person is meaningful.

Realistic

The generation learned and grew up in a period of economic distress and hardship, leading them to become more realistic when it comes to setting up goals. This makes them pursue careers that are more obtainable than dreaming big. In the age of digital information, they are aware of how data can be easily bent to your benefits. This makes them cautious, and it will influence them to form their conclusions.

Prepared

They are aware of financial issues that take up most of the time for everyone. This awareness leads the generation to take up choices to avoid financial slavery from a young age. To achieve this, they will invest in themselves to become the boss and not an employee.

Sensibly Radical

They are incredibly different from the previous generations in a sensible way. They do not take issues lightly, but they also do not make a big deal out of it in the social media. Most would choose a better way of action to solve the problem rather than voicing out their reactions.

Comparing them to their predecessor, the Millennials, Generation Z is less impulsive in decision making and will be focusing on achieving great things while keeping their feet rooted on the floor. These traits are merely a look of what the Generation Z can be capable of. Still, it would serve us best to be prepared on how they will be changing our world.

    If I have a chance to be the boss or a leader of the company Generation Z, I prefer to lead my people while helping them than to boss them around make them do all the work. The best leaders put most of their time and energy into helping other people be more successful, by making connections, giving feedback, and providing the resources they need.

    If I were the leader of generation Z, I would put them in technology because as a leader you must know where they are best suited and which field they belong to. They can greatly benefit the company because they are skilled in technology and can quickly promote it by creating attractive posters and so on.
    As a leader Generation Z, I will listen to them to make suggestions and their viewpoints because they are the ones who act on their convictions. As a leader I will guide them in improving their work, and I will need to be more transparent with them in order to gain their support and trust.

    As A leader/Boss of the company, I will manage them in the right way, I will guide them to improve their skills, I will motivate them on how to improve their skills, I will teach them what ive learned inside the company. If someday i would be a leader, I think being strict is not necessary, I want my employees to enjoy their work, And I think bonding is a great idea to know each other. Because now a days their are so many students/Employees/Leaders/Boss have suffering depressed. Because of struggle in their own life. Having a peaceful employment helps the company to improve their self as well.

    A a leader/ Boss of the company is a very big responsibility. Generation Z nowadays is under the influence of technology. As a boss I will make sure to make my employees comfortable with the things they deal in the company. I need to make my self easy to approach. In that way there will be good relationship with them. I will guide them in the things they may hard to understand. I will appreciate the small improvements of my employees. I’ll treat my employees not as a worker but a family and part of the company. I’ll be aware of their weakness and strength. As a boss I also need to know if my employees is suitable with their positions in the company. As a boss you will be the one to make your company respected and productive. And it’s start how you treat every member of the company. As we know behavior and goals of the members of the company is the key to make an organization/company strong and productive.

    If I will be the leader/boss of the company I will manage the Generation Z by being a good leader, not that as perfect but I’ll try to be good as I can be. By doing so, I will serve as a role model to this generation, that being a leader means a lot. It means that being a leader is being a follower. I will show to them what I can be as their leader yet also their fellow follower. As a result we can work as a team. For their are no borders or boundaries that will set us apart, leader to member. If I will be the leader of Generation Z I will respect every one’s views, belief, culture and opinions . I will be flexible as I could and be . And be democratically equal as we are all human being .

I will show interest to them as well. I will show them how easy to approach I am but strict in something they need to be good at for them to be productive employees. I will teach them the appropriate behavior inside the workplace, apply professionalism, the core values also mission and vision of the company. Give values and practice a good culture.

    Being a leader/Boss in company plays an important role. Generation Z nowadays are more dependent on technology, So as manager you have to involve yourself for you to be able to engaged with them,Through that you will know their differences and respect their weakness and fullfil it. You must be a good example to your colleagues for you to maintain the good atmosphere in a certain workplace and to develop a better relationship with each other. Show them that you appreciate them and it will surely leads to success.

    If I am the leader/ boss of the Generation Z company, I will do my best to be a good, dedicated and inspiring leader/boss to my employees, being an a leader of a big company just like Generation Z is not that easy because you have a lot of responsibilities and task to be done but if you are a responsible, dedicated and passionate leader/boss to your duties there’s no difficulties, because every hardship you encounter you can overcome it because as leader/boss you must be strong enough, so that your employess will do the same because leader is a role model of his/her employess,

    Being a leader or boss in an company with the generation Z, it’ll be quite challenging because of their different attitudes, weakness, and values yet in this generation are the most versatile when it comes to technology leading them you will just find their strength on where they are good at. Guide them for a smoother operation. Leading them would be a great responsibility knowing their strong points yet we can’t deny the fact that this generation got weakness too and that’s easily frustrated, prone to stress, and lack of motivation due to tough life they’ve got but as a leader it’s your responsibility to consult and guide them either for work or in life because focusing only on work without empathy with others are just so plain and dull for a workplace. Wether what generation it is having a good leadership skills motivate your team for the desired outcome organization wants.

  11. If I were the leader of the Generation Z, I’ll make fisrt that i have the ability to do as a leader of this generation. The leader that is responsible,honest, has a good communication skills, has positive thoughts, has innovative thinking or has desicion making skills and responsible person as a leader. Second, holding this generation are intense because this are the generation that grow up with the good technologies in thier time but as a leader you should not be surpass by this generation( in a good attitude and skills). Lastly, i make sure that thsi generation has trust anybody and working together well in same organization, as leader you should be the one to give good avice to your woker and co-pays workers.

  12. If am a leader/boss of a company, I will first know the strengths and weaknesses those who belong to Generation Z. In that way, I could give adjustments to them. As they are born in mobile technology era, they are expected to be good in technologies. I will give them jobs which are suitable to their abilities. I will also practice them sense of independence in order for them to not depend everything only on internet but also in their own state of mind and knowledge.

    If I am the boss of generation Z. I will be good boss to them, I will influence them to be respectful of others and make them responsible for whatever they have to do. And when it comes to education, it’s not hard for generation Z, because they know a lot about technology, they can easily be found on the internet. also give them the importance of relationships on how to deal well with others, give them some time to come up with an opinion that they can share, because the more the brain is used the more ideas will be released. And show them the realistic, that work is not always fun, you have to be serious in everything you do. And because of that way you can encourage them to pursue whatever career they want to get, without just dreaming big dreams. Manage generation Z is not difficult, because they are old enough to manage themselves. and I’m not poor either, because I’m also one of them, we’ll also understand each other in case there’s a problem.

  14. After I have read the article about Generation Z, i came up with an idea on how to manage my employees as their a leader. As we all know that this generation has variety of new norms and traits. In order for the firm to be successful and financially grow, I will lead them with integrity and gratitude, building loyalty among my people and trust their capacity in doing their job so that they would feel important on a day-to-day basis. Also, communicate relentlessly with an information filled with thoughts and clear ideas not with useless schemes. Lastly, being open to all suggestions to boost good relationship within the environment.

    If I will be a leader or boss of “Generation Z” i will do a proper planning and strategy, a healthy relationship with the resources and Ill persue them with pre-defined short and long term objectives with a futuristic approach aimed at the common goal of earning profits of generation z. which leads to increased and development of the generation, this can all help the generation z run more effectively.

  20. Renan P. Bisagar

    As a leader, I will lead generation Z by creating an environment that appeals to them and adapts to their changing requirements. Generation Z is looking for a leader they can trust and who will back them up. As their leader, I’ll take an active role in getting to know them and learning about their backgrounds, needs, objectives, and goals and listening to there opinion to make our company become successful because this person that born in this generation is mature in terms of working. As their leader i must influence them to make there goal successful in the future. In addition, I must meet their digital requirements. Generation Z is the first generation to have grown up withoit WI-FI or social media . They will be more productive if they have access to current technology, which will satisfy their craving for social connection.

    Generation Z are the people who are born on technology, they are the one who can access it easily in everything, technologically speaking than the other generation, it is because they grew along side with the technology. If I will be their leader, the first thing that I would do is to know their behaviour and capabilities in their work. I’ll adapt to the culture of where they were raised. To put my shoe on their positions, to know what they could do more, and to know their strengths and their weaknesses so I can assess and guide them with their actions. I think Generation Z is not difficult to lead since they are used to technology and has a flexible learning with it. Technology is important these days so being lead with it Generation Z helps a lot to improve every part of our goals. Leadership becomes harder when you lead more people, use your knowledge, skills, and experiences to succeed in hardtimes.

  22. Gian Gabriel A. Ybesate BSIT 3-C2

    If I were a leader that will manage Generation Z, I will be rational and genuine to them. Gen Z is high on logic and appreciates rational view to things. Gen Z employees were looking to be inspired by their leaders and would follow managers who are interested in improving the world. Although most of the Gen Z are still teenagers, they’re perceived as a generation willing to make an impact. It is important as a leader to understand what drives Generation Z and in turn, ensure that they will understand how their task/roles are aligned to the overall organizational vision and purpose.

    Handling or leading Mellinial people or what we call Generation Z is not as easy as slicing a cake. Nowadays people are more into social media, they can find anything and anyone on internet. Issues and news are spreading fast, and their are people on internet that is is considered influencer and can get the sympathy of many people easily. Being a leader or boss of company, you must practice leading by example, you should be the first one to obey the rules you made, avoid being a coercive leader, be responsible on what you’re doing in your workplace, issues are spreading fast in generation so avoid conflicts with you co-workers, respect your colleagues as much as what you expect them to respect them to respect you. Relying on technology especially this days are very handful because almost all of people now are literate on using technology, find colleagues that is not just familiar in a certain technology, get a colleagues which is expert on that certain field and skilled enough for a better performance and more productive in a short period of time. Being a leader of this modern generation, you must know what you are doing, what consequences it might take and know everyone on your surroundings even people around you, be respectful to anyone especially in your colleagues, don’t use your power to manipulate everyone, instead, use it to make everyone grow even more. Taking good care of your co workers can result into productivity rate of a company.

  24. As a leader/boss of any of the company i can manage generation z in doing the role with knowledgeable and respectable person to any of my employees. For me, this traits in this generation will be having a useful organization as knowing their knowledge and expertise in technology. It is not new to us that most if not all company right now are into the integration of technology in all their operations. This Generation must maintain the standard of using the technology and realize them how they affects to our communities and organization in using an inappropriate manner. Technology is a very changing trend in our society, nowadays people are more aware on how can they pace themselves in the midst of technology. Technologies have a lots of benefits to younger generation but we all must avoid to much focus and over consume of the technology. As I mentioned and discuss about the generation Z, as a leader/boss of that company i will listen to my fellow employees of their suggestions about on how to more bigger of that company. I respect and appreciate of their opinion in that company. And i will do everything just to be a good leader/boss on that company in this generation Z.

    As a leader/boss of the company, I need first to show respect to my employees and keep in my mind that there are a lot of responsibilities that I need to face. If I have given the opportunity to lead generation Z I will first need to know my employees if they are comfortable with their jobs. Because generation Z has high expectations for proactive communication, strong connections and transparency in their workplace. And also to provide motivations to them so that they would not feel unmotivated. And lastly help them manage their stress by taking them on a vacation so that they would not feel stressed out from work.

  28. Pura,Riza Mae S. BSIT 2-C1

    As what i have read on the article,”Generation Z is less impulsive in decision making and will be focusing on achieving great things while keeping their feet rooted on the floor” So that i conclude that Generation Z is not so hard to handle if i’ll become a boss because they are dependent ,they are aware of financial issues , they we’re responsible ,they know how to manage thier own time , realistic ,well prepared and They were born where Technology , internet and social media are already exist.

    PURA, RIZA MAE S. BSIT 3-C1

  29. If I am a leader or boss of Generation Z, I will use modern technologies such as cellphones, tablets, and other gadgets to speed up the work. Nowadays, Generation Z already has enough knowledge on how to use the internet. Social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and other social media accounts can help spread or get information to increase our data and knowledge.
    Because Generation z is interested in science and technology (for example, it is assumed that many representatives of the generation are engaged in engineering and technical issues, biomedicine, robotics), as well the art. Because of this they can be successful and perform their duties better

  30. Ermie Grace D. Pagsuguiron

    As a leader of the company and also a generation Z I will lead the company in my own unique way. Knowing a lot of things can be beneficial in my own company. Also generation Z is known for being technology savvy therefore I will lead the company by introducing my goal, objectives, mission and vision in a technological way so that it can catch attention and generation Z become interested with that idea. I will hear what they want and create a lot of opportunities for them. Always consider each of their perspectives towards the situation. Appreciate each one of them all the time. Most importantly acknowledge them and as A leader be influential to them.

    If I am the leader/boss of the company, I will manage Generation Z through the way I respect them and having a good relationship with them. As we all know Generation Z is adaptable due to the influence of technology. So, as a leader, I will teach them to be professional when using social media especially on Facebook, Instagram, etc. However, the most important thing that I teach them is the core values because core values are the best weapon in the workplace that the management should have.

    If I am the leader of a company and my members are generation Z, it will be a great opportunity to work with them. However, managing them would be a little bit challenging. Knowing that they asume to know everything, they will be reliant to themselves. They probably would not seek for help. So, I can manage them if I made some activities that can make them trust and understand each other. I can schedule team building activities to make their relaionship and coordination stronger. In this way, they will tend to ask their workmate for help if they have tasks that they can`t do alone. This will help the company to rise and earn more profit because it maximizes the skills and talents of Generation Z workers. (BSIT3 C1)

    If I’m a leader/boss of generation Z I will be good of my employee and build a relationship towards them to and I’m be a good listener to my co-worker to listen to their opinion or suggestion to company better in the business world in the business culture involved and help of i build strength help of the process of organizational culture it really big help to make my employee become, productivity,performance, interaction and important is the atmosphere in the workplace dont choke,rush or force your employee they have skills and intelligence or way to how finish their own task and I always respect

    If I have the opportunity to lead the Gen Z I will not doubt to give my full trust to them. I believe that Gen Z is undoubtedly full of very talented and unique persons. It is not hard to handle Gen Z because of the way they grow up with technology and live. A lot of elderly people always said negative things and they always compare it to their golden generation. But in fact a lot of people in Generation Z are discovering up new things that made the society amaze and proud. If proper guidance and leadership is taught to Gen Z, they can be a productive one. In that case they can help boost and make the organization and society grow. By giving them the leadership with good environment and culture it will help Gen z to be more passionate in their specific task or job.

    Jimrae Paragsa BSIT 3-C1

  36. As a boss or a leader I hope so, someday. I think it’s easy for me to handle this generation because I’m one of them. I’m with this generation, I know their feelings, goals and motivations. Being a leader I want to enjoy the work, do not be so serious. It’s just a job, but I know we all need a job someday. Except if you are a billionaire. Just enjoy the job, if stress hit you. Chill and relax, I will not be mad at you if you are one of my employees. Just consult me, I will be your leader, your guidance and especially your friend. Just ask me a permission and I will allow you to relax, before you go back to your work. I will held a team building for every three months. So that everyone can relax and enjoy, bonding and less stress. Forget about the work even just for one day. This generation even me, many of us struggled from stress and pressures if how and what do we be someday? If how do we find huge amount of money, to reach those dreams and our goals in life. Others worst depress. So that if I will become leader someday I will not be a strict leader, I will be always kind to all of my employees. No exceptional.

  37. If I were a leader or the boss of my company together with Generation Z. I will know and understand my gen Z employees and what is capabilities they may have in our company. I will teach them to adopt my working environment on what I am doing in the company to enhance their skills.

    If I had a chance of being a leader/boss of generation Z, I will become a good leader and I would be a good listener to them to build a relationship as my employee to become productive in their works and in the future. Generation Z are people who was born in technological era which has a more knowledge about technology right now so that generation Z is not hard to teach about technology and to lead in the modern era now. I will teach them of being a good employee to have a respect to their co-workers because attitude or manners is important in the workplace so that the company or an organization will become productive and prosper. I will use my power as a leader to discipline my employees to improve their personality so that if he/she become a leader in the future they would not suffer to handle their employees. Having a peaceful and independent employment helps the employee and company to improve and prosper.

    If I will be a boss with an employers that belong to generation Z, I will manage this generation by giving an orientation about the things that the company are organizing, things that they look up to and the company’s value. Generation Z, are generations that are born in the age of mobile technology and it makes them flexible and more advance in skills that involves technology. I will also manage this generation by focusing on their strengths and at the same time improving their weaknesses. This generation also possess a realistic trait that makes them cautious in economic distress and hardships that influence them to form the conclusion so managing then will be a challenge as a leader or boss. I can also manage the generation Z by being an open minded leader that listens to their idea and opinions and to give them a workplace where the company’s culture and core values are present.

    Being a leader of the company there’s a lot things to do. Having a great power comes with great responsibilities. The generation before is now different from today’s generation. To manage the Generation Z, you will to be open-minded to them, respect, and have a good relationship. Encourage and motivate them if they make a mistake, they will just have to learn from it and make it better. With the help of technologies it will be easier for me to manage, things will be easier. The Generation Z are smarter of technologies because they grew up with technologies, internet and social media and it’s easy for them to use. To manage them aslo, you will have to open up communication to them, and provide a workplace in which they will find value. Help them establish work/life balance. I will do my best to manage them and to keep the vision of the company good. Help them to have team collaboration and cooperation, prioritize their health. A lot of things have to do to manage and you must be ready and be responsible to manage them.

    Interacting with different Generation especially Gen Z, we can always define gen z are people whose born in technology era where most of the gen z is always on the phone and can be seen in front of tge technologies . Managing this gen z is mature in a young age because they are more independent, they are more practical on choosing a career and work, they choose a work where they can improve and where they have knowledge about. So handling this generation is not that hard just so you know Generation expand and improve so the thing you just have to do is to go with the flow and trust the process. In interacting with gen z especially where there are concerns that matter i think we can just hear them out how can they give manage such concerns and give them support. Respecting each other opinions the important thing in the work is to respect each other so that there won’t be any confusion and misunderstanding. Having a peaceful environment in workplace is very comfortable and can give you peace, good attitudes towards each other can help to improve and be more productive in the future.

      As a leader i want to be a good example. In what way? I will do and adopt the new generation named generation z, so that i can easily catch up what is the new trend and i will do all my knowledge how to handle every situation to find a better and easy solution. As a leader or a boss i can manage the employee in the way of being honest to them. I will also respect everyone concern or opinion if it’s maybe i am wrong. As one of the image of an generation z i will conduct a seminar every week or month maybe to check up what is new about the trend. I also help every people who needed the most. I act as a leader for the better leadership. I didn’t consider the wrong doings of my employee. That’s one way to punish of they bad behavior. I want also my team to conduct a study on how we can improve our company as one of the goal is to be the best company in the world of business.

    Being a leader/boss inside the organization, there’s a lot of responsibilities. You must know first if you are fit to be a role model to them. As what the lesson that puts in my mind that the key to successful leadership today is influence and not authority. If I’m having the opportunity to lead the generation Z, I will use my power as a leader/boss to discipline and manage them. Using my power in a good way besides, I’m also influence them towards to their goal of life. Because personal power is not just what we can do, but also on how we feel.

    If i become a boss of generation z i will be an open minded respectful and a responsible boss. As a boss i will listen to the opinion of my employees because they will feel that you respect their opinion because the gen z is more knowledgable than the previous generation because gen z grow up to a society that more modern than the previous generation the knowledge can easily be gain and thats what make the generation z more flexible to overcome the problems of your company maybe the opinions of you employees will be the one to solve the problem of the company and the gen z more have a delicate feelings they can easily hurt if you thats why being a boss you should consider of the emotions of the new gen. If you respect your employees they will respect you also. You should also make a good atmosphere in your workplace. Because Being comfortable in the workplace like what i learned in the lesson if they are comfortable in the work place your employee will be more productive to their work but you should limit in your closeness to your employees because you are still a boss and you should still have an authority in the workplace. And having a unhealthy culture can be a cause of the breakdown of your company you should be knowledgable about your employees feelings and their attitudes because the employee is the body of the company and the boss is the head the employee is the one who support of the agenda of the boss that is why they are important to the company i know that handling a gen z is hard to control them that why you should be responsible in handling the gen z because they can easily intend to do mistake because of their attitudes and they cant easily control their feelings but the gen z is a asset in the company because they are more knowledgable and more technology oriented that can help your company grow and grow you as a person also.

    With this in mind, employers are becoming more aware of the growing expectations of their workforce in terms of the work life balance. Generation Z are now considering how to achieve a work life balance and implementing targeted measures to promote this. This goal is not only to make employees more productive, but also happier and more balanced.To Better understand the challenges facing this rising workforce and their impact on employers and the workplace, To explore the key events that help shape Generation Z; dive into their individual behaviors, attitudes and preferences, seperate the myths and stereotypes from reality.

    • Kent Nicholas E. BERTOLANO BSIT3C2

      They say that a leader should have a realitistic, rational, idealistic,and optimistic mindset. If I were the leader of a Generation Z, I’ll make sure to adapt to the concurrent culture that we have. I will set myself as a good example to them. I will organize them to their respective field and understand what they are capable of I will Become a leader not a boss, a leader does bring up the finest things inside a employee, a leader listens to the opinion and ideas of his employee and a leader do work for the team itself not for his alone. A boss only use his power and authority to take advantage of his employees, not giving them credit and doesn’t about there opinions. Generation Z is more advance of a generation, the fruit of the past. I will let them speak, give them advice and I will be a friend to them. A leader who leads not only for the company but also as a teacher to who will give his teaching through his experience. Give them the best of you as a leader and you will success for sure.

  46. Mixing generations in one workplace is both very exciting and challenging. You’ve got a mix of generation z, millennials, and baby boomers. But having these kinds of workers is an asset to the company for you have a set of older people that would preserve the culture and tradition, then you also have a set of the younger generation that would lead the trend in technology. However, it would be a challenge to have them all in one company because you have to personalize your approach for each generation to avoid conflict and misunderstandings. One way to keep the harmony going is to also respect the individual differences and strengths of each employee. Make sure to communicate and implement a set of rules for uniformity too. What really matters is that these generations can work together despite the generation gap.

  47. DANICA DENISE BORRA DEMO

    It can be managed by adapting to the changes that can happen in the company because since their generations has advanced technology that the company might need and that could make the life of each employee easier. Minimize perception because it could only ruin the relationship of Gen Z to the previous employee and that would bring conflict to the company. Teach the new generation the previous environment of the company so that they could also adopt and learn.

  48. Vanessa Grace Gabutero

    The GenZ are like Millennials but magnified they grew up with technology, Internet, social media which all of these are just one click away. With GenZ invading the workplace offer good opportunity and provide big impact in the organization but in order to maintain harmonious and product environment within organization , perception must be managed, manager must avoid making age-based assumptions and stereotyping, they must listen with their employees and find out what they want, they must customize their approach and adopt varying communication styles for each employees and lastly nurturing RESPECT with each. With Respect we understand we came from different walks of life and from among other things, with that employees in that organization can work smoothly and gear to reach a common goal with enthusiasm and rigors knowing that they can achieve it. with respect comes along great attitude that will continue to contribute to general well being of everyone and the organization.

    • JOE-ANN GRACE B. HILARE

      You must build an environment that appeals to the new generation and evolves with their requirements as they enter the workforce.

      Managers should develop a culture of teamwork in the company to encourage Digital Natives to stay put. You should also provide them with numerous opportunities to interact and communicate both in person and online.

      In general, gen z workers are interested in the most up-to-date productivity stacks, therefore encourage the use of productivity solutions within your company. This will allow your staff to work more efficiently rather than randomly.

    Because of their behavior and attitude toward employment, Generation Z is continuously biased. As a result, in order to have a better workplace, everyone should leave their prejudices at home. This way, Generation Z can better perform their job without having to think of how others perceive their attitude. As mentioned, they are adept in technology, hence they can help their older co-employees with respect to some minor technological shortcuts and information. They are also responsible with their work and can do their job even without direct supervision because they can use technology as they want. Hence, by not judging them solely because they are Generation Z, they can become an asset to the company, and the workplace will undoubtedly help them refine their abilities further, as Generation Z individuals are known for their high ambitions.

    • Being leader is a big responsibility specially if the employees are always relies on your decisions to manage the company. In this day of being part of the generation Z and on the same day is if I am given a opportunity to be the lead I will teach them the importance of respect so that everyone can deal well with each task and in that way their work will be easier and smoother because at this time they forget to respect each other and in that way they will value their relationship as employees. I will use my power to help not only their work but also their own lives to continue with their life goals because I believe that being a good leader is a leader that instead of being served he serves.

    Generation Z in the workplace means more technologically savvy work mates. They have grown up with the trends of technology and are the fully digital generation. Working with them could change the workplace as they are the youngest of the present workforce and is more knowledgeable in terms of present-day digital tools and software, but obviously lacking in experience. In my opinion, this is where the Millennials come in, they are the ones who should guide these generation as they have been the past “Gen Z” before they came in. They have experience compared to these newcomers and have now a grasp of reality working in the real world. Millennials should guide them as their “younger brothers and sisters” and should mentor them to succeed in the workplace. Generation X in the workplace at this stage are more likely the bosses and high-ranking officials of the company. Their role, in my opinion is to inspire these Generation Z individuals as they are now much mature and much likely in the position of authority. Regardless of generation or age of employees, it is my conclusion that respect should be implemented to all positions, high-ranking to the lowest, so that harmony would be established in the workplace no matter how diverse the age gap would be.

  51. Voltair once said that With great power, comes with great responsibility and so as the generation Z. Today’s generation is quite different from the previous one that we have right before the advancement of technology has transpired. The aspect of workforce on this generation relies more on the power and the ability of technology to save time and make the work more convenient, efficient and productive. With just a click, a lot of things can be done. This generation is much more realistic of what is happening in the world with the help of technology. The access to everything, far or near is not impossible anymore. Their ability to work things faster relies on the technology.

    On the contrary, generation is very dependent on technology that they tend to forget how to work on with the basics. They have forgotten and tend to forget the true essence of communication and human relation. They tend to just work on what is being assigned to them without making such effort in having a true communication to their workmates. Their world is very incomplete and lifeless without the technology. Studies have shown that generation is not that efficient to work on without the use of technology.

  52. Kathleen May S. Aurelio

    I have encountered a lot of Gen Z employees during my span of career for 20 years. Some of them were a boss and many of them were in rank and file positions. They get to spend half of their lives working in companies that they chose to be in. Companies of which they have been in to right after college. Time is of the essence when they realized how long has it been working in routines every single day.

    It is just fine when the younger generations will have to work with the Gen Zs. It is not the latter’s fault anyway being mixed up with the millennial’s. The younger ones no matter how tech savvy they are, there are still a lot of things to be learned from their seniors.

    As manager of the company, I will do my best to uphold the company’s vision and mission and I will see to it that my people would easily adapt to changes for the betterment of the office. I will conduct trainings and seminars to upgrade the knowledge of the Gen Zs regarding their work assignments. It would also be productive if I plan for a company outing, that way all of my people will be more motivated and you make them feel appreciated too.

    Open communication within the office should also be observed. I would be more than willing to listen to my people’s issues and concerns. I’ll coordinate with the HR Department on the things that matter the most for my employees-salaries, benefits and bonuses. This is just giving back to them what they deserve for being with the company for so long. Both Gen Z and millennial employees will be given credits that are due to them because both are also beneficial to the success of the company.

  53. This is awesome.. keep up.

    • Andrada Mel V.

      If I’m a leader/boss of the company and i will manage generation Z first I will make personal connection and build trust to each other and I will be open minded and show them that I am a trustworthy and realible leader that willing to listen to their opinion especially in terms generating products or business because if you don’t have trust to each other and didn’t listen to the opinion of each other the connection will be lost and destroyed and this is bad in organization culture and it’s affect the productivity and affect the future of the company. And I will focus the generation Z behaviour, culture, needs, wants and goals because we all know generation Z is surounded mobile technology. and technology is affect, behaviour, culture, need and wants and it’s very helpful to produce a new product that trends in the market. the generation Z is the key to become more successful of the company because their are the freshest generation who join the business world. And business man being born in the age of technology is very important in the organizational culture because their have advance learnings and ideas and make better strategy to improve organizational culture and to help company to become more productivity.

  54. Charina Abrea

    Creative, Tech savvy and receptive to new ideas. Young employees are part of the future of the company but Gen. Z are notoriously difficult to retain in the company. This is the generation wherein the computer was commercialize but they have traits that can help the company boom.

    One of the traits of Gen Z is that they appreciates authenticity and they are actively seek out product and services that allow them to express their individuality. Also they are open minded which is very important especially in a company wherein theirs a lot of employees who belongs to earlier generations. Gen z accepts or willing to accept diversity in a workplace and they are tolerant to differences for example different races, ethinicity, culture and etc working in a company.

  55. SARAH D. RODENAS

    The success of an organization would greatly rely on constant change and innovation. An organization to become trendy should always seek and research for something unique and innovative. Generation Z can play a great role on this. Generation Z is the generation who grew up with technology where internet can be accessed anytime, anywhere. This is one of the benefits of those who belong in generation Z working in a company. Aside from being computer literate, they can work in a multi-tasking way. They can manipulate computers while talking to costumers. They can quickly and efficiently shift work and play. Research would be very easy for them because of their literacy to computers. And most importantly, they’re good with marketing strategies and advertising by just simply talking to their friends on Skype or Facebook and letting their followers know about something by posting it on their Twitter and Instagram.
    On the other hand, the challenges about those who belong in Generation Z is that they lack of focus and has a very short attention span. They don’t want to be weary for just a short time. This can be addressed by constantly reminding them about their duties and responsibilities. The talent manager should remind them always that time management is very important, that they should know when to work and when to party. To achieve this further, talent managers would know how to gradually change this negativities of Generation Z by exposing them to trainings and seminars where they could gain awareness about their negative behaviors. These are just the things that the talent managers should mulled up into their minds.

  56. Frances Anne Amantillo

    All of the traits of generation Z are useful in the organization. The best two traits for me is being responsible and being realistic. Being responsible is an asset to the company because company needs employees that require minimum supervision. Being realistic is also good because ideal goals are not achievable and it would just tire the person who set it up.

    On the other hand, being prepared is the most challenging aspect of generation Z because their superiors might get intimidated to them because they are bossy at times.

  57. Lemon Grace Ratone

    As the business world finally understand the millennials, here comes another generation with distinct and unique traits, the generation Z who were born 1995 onwards. In today’s time, their generation is very important for the economy and marketers as they influenced the household purchases. This generation is raced in a diversified environment where they believe in equality and a non-discriminating society. They are driven by their personal ambition and are very optimistic. They grew up in a diverse family structure which made them value their relationship without prejudice and become empowered to strive hard and reach their goals independently. These traits are very ideal in today’s generation of industry where employees come and go. An organization needs this kind of employees where loyalty and relationship is valued. They are highly motivated and innovative which will contribute a lot in the global war of industry.

    The challenged to every organization is that they must cope up with this ever changing world through redesigning its organizational structures that will adapt to the new traits of their employees. Generation Z is highly motivated and independent which leaders must implement self-manage teams which will give them empowerment and practice their innovations.

  58. Mark Joseph N. Traje

    As mentioned and discussed in the article, Generation Z Workforce are more equipped, more ready and very aggressive in pushing for what they believed in. Also, it mentioned that they grew up were technology is simply at the tap of their fingers. Yes and I agree that these are good traits and very commendable especially in the time were the demands of our client and the business itself is at its peak. Though, if not objectively materialize then definitely this can harm the business and the organization.
    There a lot to mention if we discuss about the challenges of this Generation but for me it boils down to, this Generation put no more VALUES in what they were doing. Yes, they can give the result, but was that really out of passion? Or out of compliance? Was it really because they really put their hearts to what they were doing or more on, their just doing it to survive the fast growing economy. Very few of these Generation understands, that when they do a job, their output represents “them” and not the organization nor what pay they received after.

  59. Pearl Joy Ortiz

    Generation Z will soon enter the workforce that will incorporate new challenges and opportunities in the corporate world. Managers should correctly address how Gen Z behave and influence the workforce to ensure healthier working atmosphere within the organization.

    Gen Z is digital natives. They can be experts in digital technology for they know about the latest through the internet. Through this connection, it creates ways of opportunity for the business. They are flexible and can work multiple jobs. It exemplifies that the work will finish at any place, at any given time. They are creative and have better innovative ideas. Companies should invest in technology for this generation have a high interest in technology as a source of ceaseless information with just a tap from a finger.

    Gen Z prefers to work alone than as a group and expect credits for independent achievements. They have difficulty in engaging with others or superiors because they tend to have low emotional intelligence. This may be the biggest challenge that needs to be addressed. They use technology for communication such as Twitter and other social media thus, lack of voice intonation and eye contact when they interact. Managers should cultivate mentorship to encourage different generations for opportunities to interact and learn from one another. They appear to be less participative in their communities that could lead to poor leadership and social skills. This should be given emphasis on conflict management skills and public speaking for it is valuable in their development in the workplace and to the society as a whole. Promote service learning integration thru community awareness to develop socially conscious individuals.

  60. Analie Joy A. Soriaga

    Workers/employees who are observed to be technology-inclined, aggressive and always on the go are the so called Generation Z. The entrance of this generation in the organization actually has its own advantages and disadvantages (due to their different traits).

    For me, the traits (that they possess) that are useful in the company are the following:
    1. Responsible – every company needs an employee who is responsible and accountable for their work. Generation Z, being independent at an early age are mature individuals leading them to have a sense of responsility. They would always find ways to solve any problem that they are faced with.
    2. They give importance to relationship – this trait is very useful in a company because all employees and their respective task has a connection with each other. Having a good relationship with the co workers can greatly influence the performance of every employee and the company as a whole.
    3. Realistic – since Generation Z are mature individuals, they live their lives objectively and realistically. They know how to do “grounding” or reality checking. This trait can be beneficial to the company because it helps the Gen Z set up realistic goals leading to a realistic result.

    On the otherhand, they also havs traits that are considered threat to a company. For example, being “prepared”. According to this article, being prepared means that the Gen z are aware of financial issues which leads them to take up choices to avoid financial slavery. Basing from experience, most of the Gen z has the tendency to move out and look for other job which can offer them a lot more (monetary or non monetary). Moreover, they have the tendency to invest om becoming the boss/owner instead of being a simple employee only.

    With this, companies needs to address or deal with this generation properly. HR to be specific, needs to know or learn what their goals or plans are, how they feel and the like inorder to retain Gen Z employees.

  61. MA. JOYZEL UBAL

    According to an article by James Scott, Generation Z are those people who were born after the mid 90’s, they are the latest or the freshest generation that are entering the business workforce today. And being born in the age of advanced technology, these employees are very valuable to the company especially when it comes to the latest trends that a certain company needs to compete in the business world. Generation Z has a great regard in receiving feedback to the work they have done. They often require or seek attention from their superior to acknowledge their effort. It may be a useful characteristic of a Gen Z employee but on a side note, they have a hard time focusing on a certain responsibility or task assigned to them, this may be because of too much activities that is happening around these generation. This is a challenge to the HR Personnel because training and teaching this generation can be tiresome and could be in a way repetitive only due to the lack of focus of an applicant during an orientation.
    Contrary to the challenges that were mentioned, Gen Z also have some traits that could be useful to the company like being optimistic and enthusiastic when it comes to their work. Maybe because this is the first ever job opportunity that they have and having their first career, being enthusiastic and optimistic is a natural characteristic that they all possess. It will be valuable to the company and HR’s should take advantage of this as after a few years, Gen Zers will be no longer be that much optimistic and enthusiastic when it comes to their work and would have a great tendency to seek better opportunities and move out of the company.

  62. GenZers are considered as true digital natives, since life is almost dependent on internet , technology and social media. They possess unique character traits that are considered beneficial and productive in the company.
    Since GenZers value training and development opportunities that help them expand their expertise. The company should strategize how to capture their talents as workers and create a workplace environment that will help them stay at the company longer while developing skillsets to do their job better, resulting for higher success in the company.
    Furthermore, GenZers had an ‘eight second attention span’, thus, managers should see to it that communication must be delivered in quick bites, rather than lengthy meetings.
    Inorder to answer the unique characteristics of GenZers, a tailored – made experience must be used as a strategic initiative that includes, digitise recruiting efforts, cross train, to create staffing models by providing ample opportunities to have business across functions without boundaries. Connecting the dots by giving performance and rewards through transparency on how effort, value system and compensation are aligned. Plan for growth to ensure full utilization of skills and coach for success where coaching and mentoring for incoming employees are recommended.

  63. Jenny Barros

    For the workplace Generation Z youngsters are the present staff, soon colleagues of present management and the future management of the company itself.
    As they are so internet savvy when coming to an interview they will already know everything there is to know about the company, including salaries (sites like Glassdoor gives such information on most well-known companies) therefore absolute truth and candidness is needed when interviewing them as possibly they may know more about the company than the interviewer. Should they feel the interviewer is not straight or honest with them they will not feel confident about having a long-term career with the company. It is important therefore from the outset if it is felt by the interviewer that the candidate is bright, have a vision and a good potential future with the company to bond with them rather than have a standard interview. As they have set their own goals which often are very realistic, it is vital to know these goals and show them how, within the company, they could actually increase these goals, firing their imagination and desire to improve themselves!
    This is the best ways to make them feel confident about their prospect and keep their loyalty! The company should have a presence in social media. They are an important addition to the company workforce because of their youth, enthusiasm, technical ability, and agility, deep knowledge of present-day technologies, good vision of the world we live in, are not usually involved in politics but are passionate about some causes and this passion can be channeled into a positive focus for the company! They are the fresh blood and fresh ideas every company needs and should not be scared of but on the contrary embrace it!

    As employees, to keep Generation Z staff will be harder than others because they are so tech savvy they’ll keep abreast of technological development and companies development, therefore, feeling another company with better technology and work environment may be better for them. The work environment is crucial to their development, rest and leisure areas should be provided during breaks with desktops and wifi access, confirmation seating/lounging facilities, coffee making etc…. Generation Z people are also thinkers and they need downtime to recharge and distill the most brilliant ideas. The best ideas and work is actually brain work and for them will not come at a work desk but in a comfy lounge with time to think. They usually do not work well under pressure but their intelligence and brilliance will shine through if properly nurtured. Basically, their minds contain more knowledge than any other generation’s staff and any “experience” can be gained at the tap of a finger albeit someone else’s experience which is nonetheless valuable. They must be encouraged to post thoughts and comments, even have blogs on the company social media pages so as to entice other Generation Z potential candidates. As the workforce gets older and retire Generation Z employees will be the future, and as for everything, the future needs to be prepared and managed.

  64. Iranne Teriz G. Chainani

    Digital natives were those people born during the birth of advance technology. Technology is a very changing trend in the society. People are more aware on how can they pace themselves in the midst of technology. Technologies have a lot benefits to younger generation but we all must consider the logical and rational way of consuming it. Preparedness is not an issue most especially when its for a purpose of educating minds and creating breakthroughs. Hence, we all must admit that we are living in a realistic world so technology is only an element but not a most rational way of achieving things.

  65. Mizpah A. Villamor

    When I listen to the older generation about their opinion of the younger ones, most often than not, they will see the negative rather than the positive. I would hear phrases like “When we were your age we already know how to do this.” or “People in the previous generation are better compared to the present.” Admittedly, I sometimes hear myself muttering these same phrases. If this is a general view, it is safe to assume that this attitude will somehow affect the culture of the institutions in how they treat the younger ones especially if the top management come from the same older generation, like the Baby Boomers or the Generation X. However, younger generation, the Generation Z is now an adult and has stepped into the working class or the corporate world. As Talent Managers, working with different generational traits is inevitable and so one should see beyond the negative bias of a given generation and focus on the positive characteristics instead.

    The Gen Z has many good characteristics that can be useful to the company. A responsible employee is a plus point. If a supervisor gives a task to an employee, he will expect that it will be done. That is a strength of a Gen Z worker. He will perform and will try to figure out things on his own because of his resourcefulness. He has a huge resource of creativity and imagination, brought about by his access to the world wide web. Giving a new project to him, will bring the company to fresh visions and new possibilities. The Gen Z, being sensibly radical, will pursue new and better way of implementing things. It is best to give Gen Z the liberty to do things his way as long as it is clear to him what output is required.

    Being known to have less focus, Gen Z’s working environment should have less distractions. A wide and spacious work space will be advantageous for him. Encourage Gen Z worker to take one task at a time. This will improve their attention span and concentration. It will also be helpful for Gen Z to have conventional face to face meeting rather than the use of digital gadgets. This will address their need for personal interaction and allow them to value relationships formed in the workplace that will result to better work productivity.

    A good Talent Manager will be able to work with any age group of workers and even produce better talents. He just has to observe the good traits and build up on these characteristics for the good of the company. He also must take note of the seemingly downside traits and find ways how to address these, so that eventually he will develop a remarkable workforce.

  66. For me the entrance of the Generation z in the world of business, cause big help in the business world. Being a Generation z they posse the traits of source minded persons. Being a source minded persons they know where to look, where to find solution. Because everything for them is one click, they can provide answered, solution to that problems or questions we ask. Being sources minded person they are persons that are exposed in the technology. As we all know everything in this world we can find it in the technology or internet.
    In the other face on the coin we all know that when we expose in the world of technology the dilemma of this is lack of interaction with the real people. And I one company is essential to have interaction with other co-worker because when we can interact we can get or share ideas in order to help our colleges not only colleges but somehow can help the company. With that interaction can build unit among co-workers, and without interacting with other co-worker we can’t build unit. That is the challenge of the Generation Z on how we can interact with other co-worker and build unity. Unity can help the company rich their goals.

  67. Rodolfh D. Doruelo

    As part of the Generarion Z, i can relate this statement of what are the traits that are useful in the company and what are the challenges that need to be addressed. Generation Z are born in technological advanced generation, in the worl of technology Generation Z are the users of internet and computers, they are expert and advance when it comes to technology, to make the company to have an easy work because of the technology, without technology our work will be on manual mode sometimes your work will get delay because we are not user of technology. It’s a big help to the organization to have Generation Z employee to make the work easier and productive and it will minimize the manpower because of tehcnology what they us.
    Some challenges that affect in the organizatio first is overusing of technology, they create a technology to help your work become easier but sometimes if the technology is overused it will affect the communities and also to the company. The Generation Z must maintain the standard of using the technology and realize them how it affects to the communities and organization if it used inappropriate manner. And most of Generation Z had been exposed to the many negative things through technology, like x rated movies are not prohibited to watch, neglecting the attention of others because they are focusing on technology. These challenges must given attention and addressed at home first.
    It’s challege to hire those belonging in Generation Z because they are technically advanced which is a big help to the organization but in contrary they also have an attitude that they don’t want to have a boss because they want to become a boss. These attitudes are very crucial to deal with. We must be careful to choose between the skills or the attitude. And i believed that if you have the good skills but you dont have a good attitude the organization will not hire you because the most important is the good attitude that you adapt in your environment and you will share to the community as well.

    Dynamic, tech-savvy, free-spirited, and motivated- Generation Z is slowly taking over the workplace. With the presence of this generation in the office, the management is challenged to adapt with the needs of these group of people. Indeed, they make the workplace even more diverse as before.

    After reading the article about Generation Z, it comes to my senses that managing talent in the workplace will be a little more challenging for the company’s HR. This generation can either break or make the business. As for me, the traits that this generation have that will be useful to the organization is their knowledge and expertise in technology. It is not new to us that most if not all company right now are into the integration of technology in all their operations. Having this Generation Z in the workplace will give the company an edge over the others given the fact that they are tech savvy, training and development may not be necessary anymore, that means lesser expenses for the organization. Another, as stated they are radical. This means that Generation Z is much more creative and innovative. Having creative and innovative minds in the workplace is vital , this will allow the business to offer unique products and services to the target market, making them one step ahead of their adversaries. And lastly, Generation Z are ambitious. They wanted to travel the world, explore life, be on top- making them work hard to reach their goals. This is a good sign, these ambitions will serve as their drive in doing their job productively and excellently.

    On the contrary, there are also some negative traits that this generation have which may pose a threat to the company. One of which is their lack of focus, having too many goals which results into a disoriented function. This generation needs to slow things down, one step at a time until all the tasks are realized. Flexibility is good and so is knowing your priorities. Also, generation Z jumps from one job to another. Yes, employee loyalty is one of the challenges companies may face in having them. They are not easily contented, they do not settle for anything less that is why they are jumping from one employer to another until they find that one company where they see themselves retiring. Compensation may not be enough to make them stay and organizations needs to find other means of making them motivated all the time.

    Diversity seems to become normal in business, a composition of people from different generations. Businesses needs to embrace this openly, and instead of looking on the differences of the employees, they need to find ways on how employees will find home at work.
