As Generation Z transitions into adulthood, communication, technology, commerce, education, politics, health, travel, and work have become increasingly globalized. But, most studies about Generation Z have been conducted independently by researchers in various countries regarding their specific populations. While this is useful from a national perspective, these studies typically employ different methodologies, survey questions, and even timing, making it challenging to compare data across geographic and cultural boundaries. More so, it becomes challenging to gain an understanding of the global Generation Z cohort.Gen Z Around the World, however, incorporates research from eighty-one countries to provide a holistic view of Generation Z. The researchers present chapters on everything ranging from communication, happiness, and learning styles to emotional wellbeing, career values, and social change.Learning about Generation Z from a worldwide perspective can expand our understanding to better work with, engage with, supervise, and educate young people in every corner of the globe.

Today's leadership industry offers hundreds of books and resources on developing leadership skills, mostly designed for adults to advance in their workplaces. The call for leadership is loud, yet by the time adults start learning leadership skills, it may be too late. The time to help develop our future leaders is today with our youth. Yet, so few resources exist. And those that do are often geared toward adults who want to teach young people about leadership rather than toward youth themselves.The purpose of this book is to help young people develop skills and competencies necessary for effective self-leadership. As a DIY generation that enjoys learning on their own, an interactive book that guides youth through their own learning and development where they can read, complete activities, and reflect on their lives when it comes to leadership puts the learning into the hands of the learners to self-pace and reflect on their own. By including reflection and application questions, self-assessments, case scenarios, and other activities, young people can make meaning of the content in a personal way.

Drawing from studies with higher education research institutions, market research firms, and industry leaders, this is the authoritative defining work on Generation Z that market researchers, consumer behaviour specialists and employers sorely need - and is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the sociology of generations.
