6. Bloomberg reports that Generation Z inhabitants have an 8 second attention span (down from 12 seconds ten years ago). Perhaps this may be attributed to being uber connected to 5 devices at once.

Do you believe entrepreneurial aspirations will evolve based on the actual size of the market for entrepreneurs? Tracy Hutton

8. Generations tend to swing back and forth like a pendulum. Generations Y and Z are very different, yet Millennials will become supervisors of Gen Z’s. How will you prepare your current junior employees to be responsive to the new class? How can we as educators help in this regard? Kurt Roberts
