Up to 40% of Gen Z employees leave within their first 12–18 months. Most organisations respond by improving their recruitment process. The real question is: what are they walking into?
I know what it costs to work in a culture where 'no' is a dirty word. My own body told me before my leadership did: I lost sight in one eye, paralysis took my right side, and still I didn't stop. It took my central nervous system taking a second hit, my immune system turning on itself, before I finally understood what I was prescribing to everyone around me without meaning to: a culture of unsustainable performance.
This is not another burnout story. It is the reason I developed S.H.O.T.S.™The Senior Leadership Human-Optimised Transformation System. Because when senior leaders set the right culture, psychological safety stops being a buzzword and becomes the foundation for everything: effective onboarding, honest conversations, early career talent that doesn't just arrive, they stay and slay.
If your Gen Z talent are leaving, the answer is not in your recruitment strategy. It starts with a diagnosis. Let's find out what yours reveals.

Althea is a fantastic coach. In the couple of sessions I have had with her, I have been able to be honest and vulnerable knowing that I am in a safe space. Her calm and probing approach really challenged me to think deeply about my situation and review it from another perspective. A really valuable support for me - thank you!
Eleanor, Head of Continuous Improvement
We were a new team formed during lockdown. The coaching supported us to grow and bond as a team and learn to work together better. They really listened to our needs and devised sessions that effectively supported and challenged us.
Laura, Director of Engagement
Supported our team through a period of intense change and created a space where we can be honest about how we're feeling about it. Also, consistently instilled a sense of kindness to self and others in navigating the change - finding practical ways forward without asking the impossible of ourselves.
