Country’s Leading Gen-Z Expert Discusses Why They Are Misunderstood
INTERVIEW ON THE PRICE OF BUSINESS SHOW, MEDIA PARTNER OF THIS SITE.
Recently Kevin Price, Host of the nationally syndicated Price of Business Show, interviewed John Schlimm.
According to a statement, “Generation Z – born between 1997 and 2012 – is poised to become the most influential and impactful generation in history! Yet little is truly known about these extraordinary young people. What is known is that just last week – Maxwell Frost became the 1st Gen Z member of Congress!
“With the oldest Gen Z’er turning 25 this year – how do we relate to this group – whether it be your child, your niece or nephew or even your co-worker or boss?
“Enter – Harvard-trained educator, advocate, artist, and international award-winning author JOHN SCHLIMM.
“In his groundbreaking new book, WHAT WOULD GEN-Z DO?: EVERYTHING YOU DON’T KNOW ABOUT GEN-Z BUT SHOULD – Schlimm smashes through the stereotypes, stigmas, and caricatures to provide the ultimate how-to user’s guide for navigating the Gen-Z Universe!
“Generation Z live in the tug-of-war between unprecedented courage and openness unlike the world has ever seen versus the shadows of unyielding stress, pressures, and judgment. They exist and persevere amidst a battle of public personas and private truths while being objectified as stereotypes and commodities.
“International award-winning author JOHN SCHLIMM has many years of working directly with Gen-Zers – in the classroom and across the country, including his collaboration with The Andy Warhol Museum to create The Gen-Z Time Capsule – WHAT WOULD GEN-Z DO? Schlimm shares 52 impactful insights, revelations, and pleasant surprises that Gen-Z has told him they want the world to know about them.
Schlimm’s goal is to help all those who live and work with Gen-Zers to develop a better understanding of these young people, and to forge healthier and more productive relationships with them.”
“For this self-avowed “#1 Fan of Generation Z,” John’s unflinching connection to Gen-Zers and his tireless advocacy on their behalf have allowed him to create a megaphone that finally brings the authentically imperfect and resounding voice of this generation into the light including:
- Clarifying Gen-Z’s work ethics, leadership skills, social quirks
- The most effective ways to communicate with them
- Exploring their love of tattoos and gaming
- What they really think about all of you—the older adults in their lives
- How they are gifting the world with the biggest leap forward ever in mental health awareness despite having the highest suicide rate in history
