[quote=Anonymous]Gen Z is generally really weak on basic people skills and knowing how to read the room. Things that we took as intuitive are not remotely intuitive for this generation. That doesn't mean they're bad people. But they have somehow never been socialized into being a part of a team or anything that is larger than their own feelings and impulses. It can seem weird to tell a bright intern how they should conduct themselves in a professional meeting. But often, Gen Z doesn't understand that their thoughts are usually a waste of time for busy people that have expertise and experience and have a million other things to do. Basically, you have to accept the consequences of bad parenting and the main character energy that social media promotes. And then explain real world behavioral norms in a neutral way. Most young people would be grateful for any and all guidance. [/quote]
