This perception can exacerbate generational divides. With so much of our personal and professional worlds now inextricably tied to digital technology, Gen X and especially Baby Boomers can feel frustrated and intimidated by the idea of younger generations mastering complex modern technology with such ease \u2014 and usually while walking (or, unfortunately, driving!).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are Gen Z really a generation of digital wizards, able to intuitively navigate code, design motion graphics, and maintain server infrastructure? Not quite.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CGK research on Gen Z points to a different phenomenon: Tech dependency. Gen Z lives and breathes the digital world. Social media, information saturation, and rapid advances in physical technology have assimilated into the Gen Z psyche in a fundamentally unique way. Leaders in the workplace and marketplace can use this knowledge to help Gen Z as employees, unlock their potential as customers, and increase trust across generations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Digital natives and internet attachment<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gen Z are true digital natives. Our State of Gen Z<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> research studies show that 95% own a smartphone, 83% own a laptop, 78% own an advanced gaming console, and 57% have a desktop computer. 29% use their smartphone past midnight on a nightly basis.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They thrive in this environment, but they also show signs of dependency. 69% become uncomfortable after being away from internet access for more than eight hours\u2014and 27% can only last one hour! Engaging with online communities and absorbing digital information has become second nature to Gen Z, and severing that connection can cause distress.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The internet is Gen Z\u2019s evergreen wellspring for entertainment, too. As our previous research shows, 73% of Boomers, 69% of Gen Z, and 59% of Millennials report using the internet primarily to access information, 72% of Gen Z access the internet mainly for entertainment: videos, apps, message boards, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The attachment also extends to communication and interpersonal fulfillment. 51% of Gen Z report daily dependence on the internet for access to other people and connections. They consider themselves members in an amalgam of distinct digital communities, with friendships and even reputations to maintain\u201460% of Gen Z believe online reputations will be the primary determinant of their dating options in the near future.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tech dependency is complex<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This doesn\u2019t mean Gen Z can\u2019t be parted from their smartphones for any reason. Just 22% of Gen Z report feeling stress if they aren\u2019t allowed to use or look at their phones while at work. This could be interpreted as Gen Z continuing to develop their preferred communication channels and expectations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to tech expectations, Gen Z\u2019s tech dependency also cultivates an instinct for digital authenticity that should be a benefit as they become adults and trendsetters. 48% say they want a standardized form of authentication from every person they meet online so they can <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">trust<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that a person isn\u2019t misrepresenting themselves. They are also 25% more likely than Boomers and Gen X to self-select into digital worlds where websites and apps track user data and run interference on bad actors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Leaders have a unique opportunity to understand, adapt, and leverage Gen Z\u2019s tech dependency in ways that benefit both Gen Z and the companies that employ and sell to them. Recognizing this new mode of interacting with technology as a paradigm shift\u2014and not merely the latest fad or PokemonGo\u2014will help leaders better connect generations in the workplace and beyond.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At CGK, we help leaders understand how to leverage technology across generations to drive trust, innovation, and teamwork. Reach out to us today to see how we can be a resource through speaking, research, or consulting. We look forward to hearing from you&#8211;in whatever tech way you prefer to use!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The term \u201ctech-savvy\u201d conjures images of young digital savants effortlessly manipulating technology in ways that people from older generations often struggle to emulate.
