On this episode of Evolving Your Workplace, host Carol Schultz brings on her podcast producer and Gen Z representative, Michael Cunningham, to discuss communication dynamics within the workplace. This one is for leaders who struggle to understand the new generations and how to collaborate with them.

The discussion highlights the importance of flexibility, noting preferences for voice interaction to avoid misinterpretation and the challenges posed by remote work and communication technologies.

They also touch on societal issues like generational divides and respect for older generations, with Michael sharing concerns about younger generations' attitudes toward older people.

The episode concludes with insights into the evolving nature of media, the impact of AI, and the need for embracing communication attempts and efforts to bridge the gap between generations.
