Managing GenZ Why Millennials Are Harder...

Nadine Samra
About this episode
I’m extremely excited for everyone to watch this one.
For the first time ever, we dive deep into managing Gen Z in the workplace – what makes them tick, how they differ from millennials, and why your approach has to change if you want to lead them successfully.

✨ And who better to talk about it than someone who’s built a powerhouse of Gen Z talent?

🎯 Meet Mahdi Shafieie —
Founder & CEO of Trifid Media (GCC’s largest content hub)
Founder of Tri Space (closed $25M in sales in year one!)
10B+ views across brands
$100M+ in global media sales
Teams in 6 GCC countries

In this episode, we talked about:

🔹 “My team is Gen Z – and I’m one of the oldest at 31.”
🔹 Why millennials are harder to manage than Gen Z
🔹 Firing fast, setting hourly goals, building massive content machines
🔹 Employee-generated content & how “Dubai chocolate” went viral
🔹 Leadership lessons, betrayal stories, and the hustle mindset

And yes… he tracks his day by the hour and runs on unlimited energy. You need to hear this.
