But is the issue really that Gen Z is afraid of leadership... or that they're questioning what leadership looks like today?

In a recent article, our own Samantha Borsari explores the growing trend of "Conscious Unbossing" and offers a Gen Z perspective on why some younger employees are hesitant to pursue management roles.

Her key takeaway: the next generation isn't rejecting leadership—they're looking for leadership roles that come with the right support, development, and work-life balance.

Organizations that want to build their future leadership pipeline should focus on:

• Preparing employees before promoting them
• Connecting leadership opportunities to long-term career goals
• Demonstrating that leadership and wellbeing can coexist

The good news? With the right training, mentorship, and culture, employers can help reshape the narrative and encourage future leaders to step forward.
