More than any other guest we’ve had, Olaolu provides great
insights into how the armed forces are responding, and in some cases adapting,
to the entry of Gen Z.
Olaolu begins by sharing his unique way of helping people
understand the differences between how people have been raised in different
generations. His question of what is
your favorite Disney movie really gets the point across.
He also shares how Gen Z is showing up differently from
previous generations in the workplace, including clear strengths such as
technology, autonomy and collaboration, as well as advice for how
organizational leaders can encourage Gen Z rather than alienating them, based
on his experiences in the Marine Corps.
Thorughout this episode, Olaolu shares how his own
experiences growing up have informed his
advice for others and has inspired him to reach out to children and adults
through writing children’s books.
