You may think you know the generations, but the Baby Boomers, Generation Xers, and Millennials are all carving out new territory as they evolve. Now here comes the latest twist— Generation Z. Even if your organization was able to bridge generational gaps in the past, the arrival of Gen Z in the workforce and marketplace just rearranged the puzzle pieces.
Believe it or not…there’s life after the Millennial generation. A new generation is impacting our workplace and not enough leaders are paying attention! Is your organization ready for Gen Z? The leading edge of Gen Z is already well into their 20s. But they differ greatly from Millennials, which means your recruitment, retention, and management strategies need to change.
This dynamic keynote gives audiences fresh insights based on national studies of Gen Z’s workplace attitudes, interviews with hundreds of CEOs, cutting-edge case studies, and insights from Gen Zers themselves.
Does Gen Z shop online? In-store? What drives their loyalty as customers? These questions and more need to be addressed as the newest generation of customers pull out their wallets.
Gen Z has disposable income to spend, but only if marketers can connect with them. More than their own disposable funds, Gen Z’s influence on family spending is the highest it’s ever been. If brands want to find success in the future, then understanding the Gen Z customer is paramount.
Based on national studies, insights from focus groups, and working with some of the world’s top brands, find out what it takes to connect with, sell to, and retain the Gen Z customer.
What did Oprah, Mark Cuban, Arianna Huffington, Ashton Kutcher, Seth Rogan, and the CEOs of Nike, Coke, Zappos, Uber (and many more) want to know?
David and Jonah have interviewed a multitude of celebrities and top business leaders about what’s on their minds when it comes to the newest generation. The celebs chose the questions, and they ran the surveys. The results are informative, engaging, and insightful. Even better, this breakout is interactive as audiences get to choose the celebrity questions, see the results, and discuss the implications!
This fireside chat takes Q&A to a deeper and more customized level. In this ask-the-author session, smaller groups can gather to take a deeper dive into what they want to know most. From Baby Boomers retiring and sandwiched Gen Xers to Millennials labeled as “entitled” and Gen Z’s side hustles — no topic is off limits. Participants can ask questions or share insights that are top of mind as David and/or Jonah Stillman present relevant quantitative and qualitative data, tell stories, and share best practices.
**Please note, breakouts are not stand-alone options and are only available in addition to a keynote/workshop. For customized breakouts, contact us.

A generations expert and author of When Generations Collide and The M-Factorteams up with his seventeen-year-old son to introduce the next influential demographic group to join the workforce—Generation Z—in this essential study, the first on the subject.
They were born between 1995 and 2012. At 72.8 million strong, Gen Z is about to make its presence known in the workplace in a major way—and employers need to understand the differences that set them apart. They’re radically different than the Millennials, and yet no one seems to be talking about them—until now. This generation has an entirely unique perspective on careers and how to succeed in the workforce.
Based on the first national studies of Gen Z’s workplace attitudes; interviews with hundreds of CEOs, celebrities, and thought leaders on generational issues; cutting-edge case studies; and insights from Gen Zers themselves, Gen Z @ Workoffers the knowledge today’s leaders need to get ahead of the next gaps in the workplace and how best to recruit, retain, motivate, and manage Gen Zers. Ahead of the curve, Gen Z @ Work is the first comprehensive, serious look at what the next generation of workers looks like, and what that means for the rest of us.
