Managers are frustrated. Recruiters are being ghosted. HR teams are rewriting onboarding for the fourth time in two years. And everyone keeps pointing the finger at Gen Z.
But here’s what the data actually shows: Gen Z workers are not unmotivated, disloyal, or impossible to manage. They are operating by a completely different set of professional values — and most organizations have no roadmap for bridging that gap.
Business is the process of creating and capturing value. All viable businesses are based on a business model that represents a method for creating value for customers and capturing this value as revenue in a competitive market. The following are the basic types of business.
Developing products and services that meet relatively unique customer needs. Business models based on the reuse of products and assets. This is a way for a small business to compete with far larger competitors that benefit from superior economies of scale.
A business that allows amateurs to access a market that was once exclusively controlled by professionals. For example, a video sharing site that allows anyone to monetize videos.
Selling goods and services from a physical shop.
This may result in premium items that can compete on quality.
Manufacturing goods to specifications for a fee.
