About this session

This session respects that Gen Z can tell when they're being patronized, and refuses to do it. Built specifically for the "Early-Career Burnout" context, this session stays concrete and respects your team's time.

You'll finish with two or three moves you'll actually use — not a list of inspiration quotes.

  • Name how to raise concerns with a manager without sounding entitled or grateful-to-a-fault
  • Notice the workplace-anxiety map — what's worth addressing, what's worth accepting
  • Apply digital wellbeing moves that aren't 'just delete TikTok'
  • Run micro-boundaries that protect focus without being visible to the team
  • Build the Deloitte Gen Z findings on what actually predicts workplace stay
