Same wiring.New expectations.
Generation Alpha is already on your schedule, working nights and weekends. Most managers still think they are dealing with Gen Z, and are managing them accordingly.

The oldest members of Generation Alpha are working right now, part-time. Retail floors, restaurant shifts, warehouses, front desks, summer production lines. This is where a generation forms its first opinion of what work is, and most employers are treating it as a staffing problem rather than a first impression.
Stanley and Taubr. Five levers HR actually controls.
They expect to know how they are doing now, not in March. A slow feedback loop does not read as thoroughness. It reads as indifference.
They will tell you what is wrong if telling you is safe. If it is not, you find out from the resignation, and by then it is a formality.
Not whether your tools are current. Whether the people using them were taught why, and not just which button.
They will trade money for meaning, and they will ask what the work is for. You need an answer that survives a follow-up question.
Skills over credentials, and a visible next step. Without one, the next step is out the door.
Generational commentary usually ends at description. Here is what they are like, good luck. These five are the variables an HR function can actually move, which makes them the only part of the conversation worth having on a Monday.
Keynotes, breakouts, and workshops on generations, change, culture, and the human side of AI. Topics and formats.
Short, focused engagements with small and mid-size organizations that are changing something and want it to survive contact with their own people. How that works.
A textbook, published articles, and an ongoing habit of thinking out loud. Read the work.
Tell me what you are trying to change and who is going to have to live with it. That is usually enough for me to know whether I can help.
