One in 10 managers will be Gen Z by the end of 2025. (A necessary reminder that the oldest Gen Zers are now 28.) Unlike previous generations, their leadership is defined by well-being, boundaries, empathy, and inclusion, reports Fast Company. They respect personal limits and reject burnout culture. (Well, except for those Rilla guys.) Glassdoor data shows sharp increases in workplace mentions of well-being (+222%), burnout (+126%), boundaries (+99%), empathy and inclusion (+76%), and clarity (+52%). That mindset is already infecting permeating workplace culture: A Gen Z intern’s supposed out-of-office email — citing “off energy” and “not getting the vibe” — went viral. I’m not convinced it’s not fake, but fabricated or not, it certainly got people talking. “Based, based, based. I f–king love our generation,” commented one person. “It’s about time some blow-back happens,” said another. “Trained under old school Boomers and ugh if I hear about getting ahead by being consistent and working hard ever again.”
