Gen Z, defined as those born after 2000, has been heavily influenced by technology and social media in their communication. They have made communication more trendy and challenging for older generations to understand. The use of slang and digital platforms has changed the way words are used and younger audiences are influenced by social media. Gen Z may struggle to communicate with older generations in companies and offices due to the generation gap and differences in language. It is important for Gen Z to be aware that older generations may not understand their language and for both sides to make an effort to understand each other's way of talking. Hello everyone, I'm Nicolai of the Addiction Podcasting, and I'm Alice, Nicolai's co-host. Moving on, today we will be featuring a topic called Gen Z and cultural communication. First off, let's start with the basics. Gen Z is defined as people born after 2000. In other words, these people are as close to digital natives as can be. Since the first generation grew up with the internet as a part of their daily lives, the communication is basically just sending and or receiving information through social media. Usually it's knowledge, ideas, thoughts that are exchanged. There are many types of communication methods, such as monolingual conversation, nonverbal communication which includes texting, body language, which most of us are really familiar with, Braille sign language, and pictography. Now that you have all the basics down, the real discussion starts here. How exactly does Gen Z affect modern culture of communication? As many were exposed to technology early on, text messages, handheld phones, and computers were all available by 1992. We could say that communication became a lot easier for humans. We don't have to travel long distances to talk face to face to our family. We could talk to anyone just by knowing their fax, email address, or phone number. No more having to scribble and post long letters. Soon enough, when digital platforms and social media were invented, we could even meet new people, get to know them, and possibly be in a relationship. Gen Z has made communication more trendy and perhaps harder for older generations to understand, like how older generations have their war, cold, and idioms that we should never truly understand. Some other ways in which communication changes is the medium of words change, and that younger audiences are influenced by social media, so it's highly likely that their use of language will spread and eventually dominate. Most of the things we know are not partially stuck to the phone. They don't leave their computers, and their hands are glued to their iPads. Don't look at me like that. I'm just saying. My uncles and aunts sometimes question why I use emojis, whether it's to irritate them or sort of make faces at them. That's not the case at all, though. And being in companies and corporations is definitely a challenge for Gen Z's communication techniques. Technically, the oldest Gen Z is around 23 years of age, and many Gen Zs are still in school. Taking up modernization in ways of communication. It seems to be an obstacle for Gen Z to communicate with older generations in companies and offices. The extensive use of slang is commonly included in conversations. It's even used more and more by Gen Z. Nevertheless, I would suggest Gen Z not to use slang when they have worked in businesses, as slang may not be apparent to all people. Otherwise, Gen Z can fail to communicate their ideas and intentions with people in the office. True, difference in age and opinion will result in a generation gap. Managers and employers tend to talk to their employees in an aggressive way, while Gen Zs converge around. But the worst thing is, employers may think their manner of speech is normal. However, Gen Zs might feel irritated, on the contrary. Chances are that they can misinterpret what their employers are really wanting to convey in the communication. Well, that could lead to conflicts among people within an organization. Looking at Gen Zs because we are now sharing some really important tips on how to communicate better in business. Tip number two. Gen Zs shouldn't expect older generations to understand their language, as the same goes for the old age. Being born into a world where the use of slangs, emojis and acronyms are common, Gen Zs sometimes forget that the older gens aren't as fluent in their language. Older gens are really effective when talking to each other, but with Gen Zs it may seem like they are talking to a wall. They might not realize it, but idioms and similes from the older generation can be quite challenging and hard for Gen Zs to get at. Last tip. Try to learn more about the older generation's way of talking. Once you have passed the language barrier, it's not that hard to communicate. Millennials and older gens could try to use the internet more often and research more about Gen Z's manner of speech and vice versa. Ladies and gentlemen, this is the end of our episode. We look forward to seeing you again in another one.
