Money not the driver for Gen Z continued from p.13 "This generation is eager to learn and driven to create; they're tenacious and confident to learn." Inspired every day by the youth she mentors as a CEO of four companies that provide resources for youth, Lovell said "this generation is advancing their knowledge and enriching their leadership skills" at breakneck speeds. Gen Z are not Millennials There is also a big difference between Millennials (born between mid-1980s and mid-2000s) and Generation Z (born after 1991) although most business leaders think they're all the same, Lovell said. Whereas Millennials are graduating and starting families, Generation Z are "entrepreneur driven" and don't see a postsecondary education as the only path to career success, said Lovell, who lives in Waterloo. "They want to create their own futures. They've seen the debt Millennials have gone through," Lovell said. They don't want to be stuck in the box "They don't want to be stuck in the box that society has created for them. They're advancing at lightning speeds and businesses can advance with them but they have to believe in today's youth and help them gain the confidence they need." Lovell said companies also need to understand how today's generation views work. "Instead of living to work, today's youth work to live," Lovell said. "Work is not the end goal for youth. It's a means to achieve their ambitions; where they want to end up in life." She said today's youth won't follow the classic path of working their way up the ladder, slowly but surely. Instead, they stay an average of two to three years in a job and then move on. Turnover rate is high "The turnover rate is high. If the job doesn't satisfy them on their path, they will leave," Lovell said. The reason -- today's youth doesn't rely on their job as much for security reasons. Many live at home where they have more freedom to be selective on choosing employment. Money is not the driver "Money is not the driver for choosing their employer or career. In fact, it is No. 3. The No. 1 thing they look for in a job is personal development," Lovell said. "They want to grow." see Today's on p.25 21 | Thursday, June 4, 2015 | OAKVILLE BEAVER | www.insideHALTON.com Replenish Volume. Restore Collagen. Refresh You.
