Mind&Body@Work

Mind&Body@Work

Gen Z is entering the workforce with new perspectives and expectations. In this podcast, we’re here to listen to their stories and experiences – their successes and frustrations - and help employers understand the mindset and perspectives of the up and coming workforce. Employers can’t dictate what their young employees find meaningful—what they can do, however, is empower them to create their own sense of purpose and authentic connections. Our curriculum is designed to help them do exactly that, EV Leader Lab is committed to paving the way for more curious, engaged and connected, young professionals in the workplace.
