Wanted Generation-Z partners to tell me how the world really works.






One of the things that makes me most proud running TEDxStHelier is the opportunity to share new ideas and novel thinking and also to give people a voice. You’ll see that this year (2015) TEDxStHelier featured a lot of conversation about education from teachers, pupils and business leaders.

I attended Leadership Perspectives: Small Island, Big Opportunities @leadershipjsy #leadershipjsy15

I was impressed by Max Bourcier @MaxBourcier, who, like the fantastic students who spoke at TEDx was full of passion, ideas and enthusiasm.

A number of business leaders said wouldn’t it be great to have that type of thinking to invigorate our organisation and challenge our thinking.

My idea is GenZ-Consulting.

To be fair my idea is simply a name, because to truly embrace the concept what I need to do is engage the Generation-Z people and their tutors, teachers, mentors and inspiration and to work with them to co-create something that can benefit business, offer bi-directional mentoring and perhaps do something novel, interesting, informative and worthwhile.

“Problems cannot be solved with the same mind set that created them.” ― Albert Einstein.

So it is madness for a Baby Boomer (me) to talk about Generation-Z things, but I do think there may be mileage and mutual benefit working together. If you are interested in this idea and particularly if you are under the age of 20 please contact me.
