The experience of a young professional today isn’t the same as it was for someone a decade or two ago and that matters for both individuals and those who manage them. In this blog we will explore the nature of the divide between younger and older generations, highlight the key pressures each group faces, and offer practical guidance for managers seeking to support their teams across the age spectrum. Research indicates that younger generations, for example those born into Generation Z and younger Millennials, are reporting higher levels of stress and burnout compared to older generations.

  Emotional eating isn’t about lack of willpower. It’s often about coping. Stress, anxiety, sadness, boredom—even overwhelm—can all trigger the urge to eat, not because your body is hungry, but because your mind is looking for comfort. The challenge?
