She also discusses why Gen Z’s refusal to accept “work at all costs” cultures may be a rational response rather than entitlement. Highlights Burnout as values conflict, not just overwork Why Gen Z has watched older generations collapse and learned from it Inclusion as behaviour rather than branding Conscious pauses as leadership tools Natasha Wallace Takeaways: Self-awareness is the foundation of good leadership Replace judgement with curiosity Feeling seen drives retention more than perks Compassion and accountability are not opposites Natasha Wallace Links www.natashawallace.com https://www.instagram.com/_natashawallace/ https://www.youtube.com/@natashawallacecoach https://www.linkedin.com/in/natasha-wallace-cs/ Generationally Speaking Links: Generationally Speaking Website Generationally Speaking on LinkedIn Alastair on LinkedIn
