About this listen

In my final 2025 collaboration episode with ISC Group, I interviewed Alisa Grafton for a timely and intriguing conversation about Generation Z and how their digital-first upbringing is reshaping the workplace. Alisa breaks down what truly sets Gen Z apart, from being the first generation to never know an analog world, to growing up amid constant global crises and identity-driven conversations around diversity and authenticity. We talked about how this exposure has shaped a generation that is purpose-driven, entrepreneurial, and deeply values transparency, while also sometimes struggling to build offline connections in a hyper-connected world.

We also dug into the real challenges leaders are facing as Gen Z enters the workforce, especially after the pandemic disrupted traditional professional development. Alisa debunks common myths, reframing Gen Z as pragmatic, transactional, and intentional about where they invest their energy. Our conversation explores how this generation is rewriting workplace rules through flexibility, side hustles, and reverse mentorship, and what leaders can do to meet them where they are.
