Past Event: The Gen Z Factor
One of the biggest takeaways from our session with Sunny Bindra and the Gen Z panel was that Gen Z isn’t just our future workforce—they are our future customers.
With over half of Kenya’s population under 20 and around 75% under 40, businesses will need to rethink how they market, sell and engage. The next generation of consumers has grown up with technology, values authenticity, and communicates differently from previous generations.
The session also challenged many of the stereotypes about Gen Z. They are digital natives, independent thinkers and natural innovators. Rather than resisting their approach, we should embrace it by empowering them to drive digital transformation and AI adoption within our businesses.
As leaders, we need to communicate with clarity, explain the “why” behind our decisions, and align their purpose with our vision. Gen Z values openness, honesty and regular feedback, and when given trust and direction, they can make an incredible impact.
The message was simple: Gen Z is not a “toxic generation”—they are our future. Our challenge is to bridge the gap between experience and innovation, combining the wisdom of previous generations with the fresh thinking that Gen Z brings.
