Absolutely and we're seeing a shift in leadership too. So, when I would go out and speak, and I usually speak to senior level group leaders, the room would be at least half boomer. And now there's a handful of boomer, a lot of Gen X leaders, more millennial leaders and now we're seeing, at least in the US, about 12% to 13% of the workforce is Gen Z. That's going to be 30% by 2030 and they're an entirely different animal. They are going to change work in really fundamental ways that I think are ultimately positive.

Additional quotes by Heather McGowan

Not only has it played out, it's gone from push to pull. So it used to be the employees pushing employees to learn. Now the Pew's latest survey on why people leave organisations, of course number one is compensation; people jump for more dollars, but that doesn't sustain. But with a net score that was the same, it was learning opportunities, because people realise, "If I'm not learning, I'm not going to be earning in the future". And so they know that's what makes them valuable in the future, and so that's becoming a real pull with employees.
