Generational Differences in Higher Education and the Workplace: Leading and Teaching Millennials and Generation Z
Members of Generation Z, the post-millennial generation, are independent, entrepreneurial and technologically engaged. Gen Z, otherwise known as the iGeneration, value loyalty, consider themselves to be open-minded and compassionate, and their digital literacy is unprecedented. While higher education institutions have been evolving to meet the needs of millennials, Generation Z students have quietly become the traditional higher ed. consumer. As the largest population cohort, edging out both the millennials and the Boomers, “Z” should be a subject ripe for education inquiry, especially in higher ed. settings and, as “Z” members transition to the workforce, the corporate setting. Thus, this interdisciplinary series examines the intersection of higher education and unique generational variances. This series is receptive to works that use a variety of methodological approaches, focus on any recent generational dynamics, and situate their analysis in higher education and corporate contexts. Generational Differences in Higher Education and the Workplace: Leading and Teaching Millennials and Generation Z seeks to be truly interdisciplinary by including authors from all the social sciences and humanities: communication, history, sociology, economics, philosophy, psychology, ethics, as well as education and business.
