About this session

The research is clear — Gen Z anxiety is real, specific, and not solved by resilience posters. Built specifically for the "Mentoring Gen Z" 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.

What your people take away

  • Name the three confidence plays that actually work in meetings
  • Notice the workplace-anxiety map — what's worth addressing, what's worth accepting
  • Apply the difference between imposter syndrome and actually being under-supported
  • Run the specific shape of early-career burnout — often invisible before 24 months in
  • Build specific moves from Jonathan Haidt's work on attention and mood
