Gen Z workers have swapped lengthy emails for short-form messaging, incorporating emojis. They utilize tools like iMessage and Google Docs, favoring faster communication methods over email clutter. Babbel's survey revealed that they find the volume of work emails stressful, with 36% having over 1,000 unread emails.
Gen Z employees inject personal flair into responses, using memes, emojis, and slang in workplace communications. CEO Liz Giorgi noted an email response saying, 'Hey boss, let's f'in go,' showcasing Gen Z's emotional expressiveness. She acknowledges initial hesitation but later appreciates their genuine enthusiasm.
Pew Research categorizes individuals born after 1997 as Gen Z. The shift towards short-form communication among this cohort is attributed to the digital era's inundation with virtual work tools, influencing their workplace interactions.
