1
the generation we are born into impacts every aspect of our life.
2
Think about that, y'all.
3
It impacts our attitudes, our values, our economic conditions, our opportunities, even our well-being.
4
Some people have challenged this idea.
5
How so?
6
Yeah.
7
Well, I think pretty much everyone agrees that growing up now, living now, is completely different from what it was like to live 100 years ago.
8
or 50 years ago, even 20 years ago.
9
There's just so many changes in technology and the way that we led, the way that we relate to each other and everything else.
10
Where you get the challenges is people say, well, why are we putting people into these arbitrary 15 to 20 year groups?
11
Well, because that's really an easier way to study people.
12
Otherwise, how would we have the language?
13
Would we have to say each individual birth year or people born in the 70s?
14
And there are some reasons to group people that way.
15
it allows us to just understand more about each other, which is really the point, you know, not to point fingers or stereotype, but to try to understand each other better.
16
That's why I got into doing this in the first place.
17
Okay, so you write about a phenomenon called the slow life strategy.
18
What is that?
19
Yeah, so it explains so much about how things have changed over the generations.
20
So when you have a society that's just more technologically complex, people live longer because we have better medical care,
21
And then education takes longer to finish.
22
So it slows down the whole life cycle.
23
Like not day to day, but in terms of years.
24
That people take longer to grow up and longer to grow old.
25
So in childhood, kids are less independent.
26
Teenagers are now much less likely than, say, Gen X was at the same age to have a driver's license.
27
Or to have a paid job.
28
They're less likely.
29
Yes.
30
Much less likely.
31
And why is that?
32
That they're less likely?
33
That's what I hear.
34
The teenagers now don't have driver's license.
35
That's right.
36
...nor care about driving.
37
Right.
38
And why is that?
39
Well, there's a couple reasons.
40
So one is the parties on Snapchat or Instagram, but that's one element.
41
Yeah.
42
But it is also this slow-life strategy.
43
They just are not as eager to do adult things in the way
44
that Gen Xers or even millennials were at the same age.
45
They look at having a driver's license and they're like, you know.
46
Oh, see, I thought it was because of Uber.
47
Well, until really recently, you couldn't take Uber until you were 18.
48
Plus, we see the decline in driver's licenses, even in rural areas where Uber isn't around.
49
Uber's expensive, too.
50
So, and it's also not just the driver's license.
51
They're less likely to have a paid job.
52
They're less likely to go out on dates.
53
They're less likely to drink alcohol.
54
So nobody's getting jobs at 15 and 16 anymore?
55
Not as much.
56
Yeah.
57
Not as much.
58
It's much less common.
59
So all of those adult things, those happen later.
60
So they're just taking longer to do those things.
61
That's why it's called the slow life strategy.
62
Yeah, that's right.
63
And then it shows up in young adulthood, too.
64
There's this reluctance to you become an adult.
65
It's now a verb adulting right and that's
66
and nobody ever says adulting for all the fun things about
67
being an adult like being independent it's things like doing laundry
68
and paying your bills yeah there's that focus on oh that's no fun
69
but just on the practical matter young adults um take longer
70
to settle into a career to get married to have children
71
but it goes on because middle-aged people look
72
and feel younger than their parents
73
or grandparents did at the same age thank god for hair
74
color yeah it's actually biomarkers too they've looked at it
75
and we actually are younger than a few decades ago it's
76
not just hair color yeah no it isn't noah efron once said
77
that hair color is the greatest gift ever given to women
78
that lady clara yeah yeah it is it made a huge difference
79
because you know it just did yeah yeah
80
and i will always color my hair i will be in the the casket, colored.
81
Oh God.
82
So, so go ahead.
83
Yeah.
84
So that's middle age.
85
And then just as people get older, they enjoy more years of health and more years of life.
86
Yeah.
87
And so all of that has contributed to the slow life strategy.
88
Yeah.
89
So Amanda Schneider is a researcher and writer and her upcoming book is called Work for What's Next?
90
Why Workplace Culture is Failing and How the Next Generation Can Fix It.
91
Welcome, Amanda.
92
Thank you.
93
So I'm so happy that we're having this conversation because I hear all the time the,
94
you know, differences between the generations in the workplace.
95
And you say work is broken.
96
How so?
97
So I think we are actually changing the vernacular when we think about work.
98
And I think, unfortunately, right now, we're focused on the wrong problem.
99
When we hear people talk about work today in the media, especially it's around return to office, but we can't fix a how problem with a where solution.
100
Bringing them back won't matter if there's a problem with how we're working.
101
So the next generations who are naturally digital first, meaning they see the world through a digital mindset,
102
can really help us figure out how to evolve work for this digital era, meaning blending physical and digital work.
103
Right.
104
And so I know that some Gen Zers say that they've gotten a bad rap.
105
Do you think Gen Zers have gotten a bad rap in the workplace?
106
Definitely.
107
Definitely.
108
People say they don't want to work as hard as their parents.
109
Yeah.
110
Uh, they demand work-life balance.
111
Yeah.
112
Uh, and believe in, don't really believe in loyalty to the company.
113
Are those generalizations true?
114
They're true, but there's another perspective there.
115
Okay, what is it?
116
So if we want to look at their perspective, we have to understand how they think.
117
And I think that we have to do more to bring these generations together.
118
So if I had to summarize kind of what's shifting, work used to be a noun.
119
And I think some older generations think about work as a physical place.
120
Meaning when my dad said he was going to work, it meant he was physically taking his bag and he was going to an office, right?
121
Yes.
122
Yes.
123
When these younger generations think I'm going to work, if you look at how my kids hear me when I I say I'm going to work, it means I'm going to open my laptop somewhere.
124
Might be at an office, might be at home, might be somewhere in between.
125
That's a fundamental difference in the way we perceive the languaging of it.
126
I think it's a fundamental difference in how these different generations see the world.
127
Okay.
128
And so to fix work, we're going to have to really understand and fix the systems that are evolving from a noun to a verb.
129
Jean, you even write that Jinzy is skeptical for the need for hierarchy in the workplace.
130
You call this flattening.
131
Explain what that is.
132
Yeah.
133
So it goes along with individualism, just more focus on the self and less on others.
134
It's been another big change in the culture over the years that shaped generations.
135
So in the workplace, it just means a lot less hierarchy.
136
And we've seen this across many decades, that it used to be people would call their boss by their last name, you know, Mr. Jones, Ms. Patel, right?
137
And now it's Mike or Priya, you call them by the first name.
138
Sometimes you might even call them bro, if you're in Gen Z.
139
Yeah, really.
140
Just much more casual.
141
And we see this in dress.
142
You call your boss bro?
143
I don't.
144
Yeah.
145
But you would call you some people call their bosses.
146
My kids probably will.
147
My kids call me bro.
148
Okay.
149
All right.
150
I am from San Diego.
151
Okay.
152
Explain some of it.
153
Okay.
154
Yeah.
155
But it comes out in dress too
156
that it used to be people would wear suits to work and really dress up to work.
157
And then it was, oh, in the 90s we had casual Friday and now every day is casual Friday.
158
Yeah.
159
And again, for my kids, maybe people looking at them, I'm kind of wondering if in the future people end up at work wearing pajama pants.
160
Maybe we're already there.
161
Yeah, I think we are already there.
162
And it also just comes in how people relate to each other.
163
That it used to be much more common for bosses just to tell employees, okay, this is what you're going to do, and they would go and do it.
164
And now it's much more of a team mentality and much more of the manager working with people
165
rather than ordering them around
166
and talking more about why we're doing what we're doing
167
and why it's important rather than just go do this because that's what I told you to do.

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
