The Future Begins with Z with Tim Elmore...

JOHN MAXWELL
About this episode

75% of managers report that Gen Z is the toughest generation to lead, and 30% have fired a Gen Z employee within a month of hiring them. Can you relate? Gen Z is in the workforce and they're here to stay – so tune in to today's bonus episode of the Maxwell Leadership Podcast to learn how to lead them most effectively!

Join John Maxwell, Mark Cole, and Tim Elmore for a deep dive into Tim's newest book, The Future Begins with Z, and a powerful discussion poised to help you get the most out of your youngest team members and turn one of today's greatest leadership challenges into your organization's competitive advantage.

Key takeaways: 

  • Meet them in the middle. While Gen Z brings fresh perspectives and intuition about the future, they also want guidance from experienced leaders. 

  • Focus on meaning over money. While fair compensation is important, leaders can inspire greater loyalty by giving them meaningful objectives and the flexibility to tackle them creatively. 

  • Open lines of communication. Gen Z wants to have their voice heard.
