Gen Z and Emotions at Work: A Challenge and an Opportunity for Employers!
DATE
LOCATION
EVENT DETAILS
Gen Z is challenging many corporate norms, expecting more authenticity, transparency, and openness to emotions at work. Research shows that the vast majority of Gen Z employees would like to talk about their emotions at work, and they’re nearly three times more likely to stay motivated when they feel they can bring their authentic self to work. At the same time, over half of managers still believe that work is not the place for emotions. This disconnect leads to misunderstandings and tensions, and over time, to lower engagement, satisfaction, and higher turnover among younger employees.
On behalf of the AmCham HR Committee, we invite you to a meeting entitled Gen Z and Emotions at Work: A Challenge and an Opportunity for Employers! Our speaker will be Iga Pilewska, Future of Work Expert, Founder of Oneness UP, and in this session, we will explore:
● what emotions dominate Gen Z’s experience at work,
● the key challenges their managers are facing,
● how some organizations are creating environments that support young employees’ potential by addressing emotions and working with them constructively, ultimately improving engagement, wellbeing, and team-wide productivity.
The meeting will take place on Thursday, September 11, from 9:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m.
We encourage you to visit the AmCham office, Spektrum, ul. Twarda 18, 16th floor (live tickets are limited to 20 people, for those registering live, we ask to click the live ticket). The Webex link will be sent to all online attendees one day before the event.
