In order to fully understand and positively impact their children, PARENTS need to view them through a new lens. We live in a digital age powered by technology, overwhelming Gen Z with a constant barrage of information about current world events, while navigating the pressure of social media. In order to cope, members of Gen Z have learned to filter the information they allow into their lives resulting in a siloed, on-demand generation. Steven highlights strategies, unravels the mystery of Gen Z, and then equips parents with practical tools. An understanding of the curated stream is essential if parents hope to influence their children at all.
It is imperative that STUDENTS remain current and relevant for an ever-changing job market. Steven will examine the legacy value of prior generations while equipping Gen Z with steps to future proof themselves.
