We keep calling Gen Z “unprepared” … while giving them work that isn’t worth doing. L-EAF LAB co-founders Pinny Sutkin (20+ years in talent acquisition) and Simon Holzapfel (former head of school) join Strategic Shift to explain why early talent is misunderstood and how companies can stop losing great people before they even start. From “you can’t schedule innovation” to “it’s time for resumes to go bye-bye,” they break down what a purpose-driven, collaborative workplace requires and how their lab model produces graduates who can show real outcomes.
