Many companies are finding it difficult to understand, attract and retain this young talent. So, just how can companies manage the Gen Z?<\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ieseg.fr\/en\/news\/elodie-gentina-managing-generation-z\/\">My new book<\/a>&nbsp;aims to answer this question by shedding light on the specific characteristics that define the Gen Z, within the context of the workplace environment.&nbsp; I seek to provide a detailed analysis by deciphering their behavior in society (their relationship with parents, peer groups, schools, etc.), which is different from those of other generations.<\/p><p>The book is designed to be very practical. It draws on field work and surveys I carried out as part of my research (over 6,000 questionnaires in the period 2020-2022, and interviews with young people and managers), as well as testimonials and interviews with over 50 company directors, HR managers and talented young people.<\/p><cite>\u00c9lodie GENTINA<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/insights.ieseg.fr\/en\/resource-center\/managing-the-gen-z\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read the full interview on I\u00c9SEG Insights<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Gen Z, which represents around a third of the world&#8217;s overall population, is gradually integrating the workforce.
