Accelerating The Future

"Gen Z is already reshaping consumer and employee trends. Boards need to understand how this generation is having an impact and what questions to ask now.
This generation sees and interacts with the world much differently, and its influence can help older generations consider new ways of thinking.

Boards should understand how Gen Z is already impacting board priorities such as digital transformation, ESG, and CEO succession planning"
