- Hady Mendez was the former head of equality at a major tech company.
- Mendez lists many things Gen X got wrong, and Gen Z got right, as far as diversity in the workplace.
- She says Gen X has always been afraid of pissing off the wrong person at work, but Gen Z isn't.
I'm a Generation Xer, but honestly, sometimes I wish I wasn't.
It's not that I didn't love growing up resourceful and independent and listening to Madonna and Meatloaf while wearing my Jordache jeans and Benetton sweaters. It's just that Gen Z has so much more going for it. They're a feisty bunch, and they're getting so many things right.
