Read previewThis as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Maggie Zheng, a 26-year-old from Arizona who works for a tech startup. While it's difficult and unfair to generalize an entire group of people, my experience dating tech bros certainly matches the phrase. I've learned a lot from my peers about how to apply a tech mindset to my relationship in a healthy way. My fiance and I both use our tech mindset to help our relationshipI've taken notes from my peers and even started applying them to my relationship. They were pretty normal things like meeting each other's parents and going on vacations, but applying a tech mindset helped us feel confident, structured, and on the same page.

Read previewAfter nearly 25 years of headhunting for the corporate elite, I've seen it all. But I've seen too many candidates rest on their laurels, assuming their existing Rolodex (yes, some still have those) is enough. I've seen it happen, and it's not pretty. I've seen candidates lowball themselves out of insecurity, and others demand outrageous packages out of hubris. I've seen candidates ghost companies after multiple rounds of interviews or respond poorly to rejection.

For example, some millennials who manage Gen Zers face the unique challenge of weighing their corporate conditioning against more progressive ideals. Courtesy of Maya PennSome people say that Gen Z's eclectic style is unprofessional, but 24-year-old Maya Penn said Gen Z is simply embracing authenticity. Another tool she's implemented is adopting a softer approach to giving feedback after she noticed her Gen Z employees were interpreting her initial approach as criticism. Despite the challenges of leading Gen Z, this manager said the younger generation has taught her to prioritize her personal life. "Some people complain that they're hard to work with, but having high expectations and wanting work-life balance and an employer who cares isn't a bad thing," Tooker told BI.
