The modern workplace is experiencing a seismic shift as five generations work side by side. What have we learned about each other? As Gen Z enters the workforce, offices, Slack channels, and emails miiiiight just sound a little different. Test your knowledge or learn a thing or two as we #TakeItToTheStreets at #AWNewYork24. 🧠 Meta, Meta for Business #raybanmeta #smartglasses

As a first generation Nigerian-American, who is Gen Z, I understand and use all these terms in my daily college and work life.

As the representative “Gen Z-er” in my internships & this industry, here is a quick vocab lesson😂

Gen Z is changing the playing field when it comes to employee attraction and retention. Stay ahead of the curve and prepare for the next generation of leaders and employees. Know what helps them thrive, grow and most importantly continue to pour into your company!

This was an interesting watch. I surprised myself and knew most of these! Anyone else? We currently span six distinct and quite different generations within our workforce. Building a robust organization requires understating the impact of a generational workforce and having a commitment to embrace this type of diversity and create an inclusive environment. Is this something your organization has struggled with? Have your HR departments provided any training on this topic? Curious to hear your thoughts and suggestions.

Interesting discussion on gen Z. We should be thinking about how we all better communicate and work effectively together throughout all generations. Just because characteristics of generations are different to mine or yours, it doesn’t mean they are wrong, just different. Working out the language, reasons, drivers, of these generations and speaking in their language (or at least understanding it), and harnessing their differences will help us all work more collectively together and drive success.

Keeping up with Gen Z phrases isn't just about staying trendy; it's about bridging the gap between generations in communication. As language evolves, understanding the terms younger generations use helps foster inclusivity and connection in both personal and professional spaces. While you don't need to use every phrase, being aware of them can enhance engagement and collaboration. How do you see generational language shaping workplace communication and relationships? Let's explore how we can better connect across generations!

🌍 The modern workplace is evolving, with five generations working side by side! What have we learned from this dynamic mix? As Gen Z joins the workforce, workplaces see fresh perspectives, new communication styles, and exciting collaboration opportunities. Here's why multi-generational teams are a win: 👩💻 Diverse Skills: Each generation brings unique expertise and problem-solving approaches. 🧠 Fresh Ideas: Different viewpoints fuel innovation and creativity. 🤝 Mentorship: Knowledge sharing across generations leads to continuous growth and learning. Embrace the power of a multi-generational team—it’s the key to a thriving, future-ready workplace! 💼✨ #TalenAcquisition #Recruiting #GenerationalDiversity #FutureOfWork #Collaboration #Innovation #WorkplaceCulture #Teamwork #GrowthMindset

Like many people, the sudden announcement that Meta is sunsetting Workplace took me by surprise. After ten years in the game, Workplace looked like it was here to stay. But with big tech pivoting to AI, the business Meta “accidentally” fell into is no more. Julien Codorniou's recent post offers some interesting insights into what went wrong. For all the Workplace customers who now have to go back to the drawing board, my advice is this: look for a provider that truly understands and addresses your needs – where the tech and team you rely on aren’t just another cost centre. The right partner will turn this disruption into an opportunity for you. There’s never been a better time to move beyond basic internal communications and create value by enabling and empowering employees. Sure, communication is still important, but employee engagement and productivity need a connected strategy. This is what truly drives business success. Let’s talk about how Flip can help you make the switch. #MetaWorkplace #EmployeeEngagement #FutureOfWork #DigitalTransformation
