In this episode of The Executive Leadership Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Tim Elmore, founder and CEO of Growing Leaders and author of The Future Begins with Z, to explore one of the most pressing challenges — and greatest opportunities — facing today’s executives: leading Generation Z.

As the age of authority declines and the age of maturity rises, leaders are navigating a new reality. Gen Z employees bring intuition, innovation, and digital fluency — yet often enter the workforce still developing key soft skills and emotional intelligence. With millions of seasoned workers retiring and a smaller generation stepping in to fill the gap, getting this right isn’t optional — it’s essential.

Dr. Elmore shares nine practical strategies for engaging, developing, and retaining Gen Z talent, including how to:

• Interview and onboard younger employees for long-term success
• Deliver firm feedback while protecting fragile confidence
• Motivate, mentor, and manage across generations
• Equip emerging leaders whose EQ matches their IQ

If you’re ready to move from frustration to fascination — and turn generational differences into a competitive advantage — this conversation is for you.

The future of leadership begins now… and it begins with Z.

Welcome to Episode 50! On this episode, I have Chad Prevost on the podcast as we talk about burnout and stress! Yes this is probably something you face as a leader!

Burnout isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a reality for millions of us. In this episode, we dive deep into Chad's book Shock Point: The Enneagram in Burnout and Stress, a groundbreaking book that moves beyond Enneagram basics and into the heart of why we’re unraveling under pressure.

We explore with Chad how our Enneagram type shapes our response to stress—whether we go numb, get anxious, overwork, or shut down—and how recognizing these patterns is the key to reversing burnout. With U.S. workers facing record levels of stress, and real-world consequences like missed work, strained relationships, and mental health decline, understanding ourselves isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity.

Expect practical insights, powerful data, and actionable takeaways for every Enneagram type. Whether you’re a Type 3 pushing past your limits, a Type 6 stuck in worst-case-scenario mode, or a Type 9 avoiding conflict at the cost of your own energy—this episode offers a map for change.

It’s not about fixing yourself. It’s about understanding your design—and working with it, not against it.
