I used to be the hot-headed Gen Z trying to change the world but through that way I only faced more resistance, and I was shut down so frequently with people calling me “NAIVE” which in hindsight I really was… Today, I understand change is not instant, and we need to work with the people who have the proper resources and platform to create these changes. Change is not a one-sided thing and as much as we want the previous generations to embrace change, we need to ourselves find a middle ground and convince them to change from their tried and ways! As the next Generation of Gen Alpha coming into the workplace, maybe I will be the outdated and old-fashioned one in the future? Eventually I would need to embrace the change that they bring along to the industry too, but till then I still have a lot to learn from the previous trailblazers! I’ll be sharing more about the discussion in my upcoming newsletter, I realised I haven’t written on it in a while but that’s only because I don’t ChatGPT my newsletters, it’s genuinely from the heart. So stay tuned! Also I have a podcast where I talk to your neighborhood entrepreneurs on the Oddinary Podcast. Check it out below!
