On MoneyFM 89.3’s  Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen and co-host Neil Humphreys discuss one of Singapore’s most urgent workforce challenges: why so many Gen Z employees feel emotionally disconnected at work — and what companies can do about it. Joining us is Ahteram Uddin, Growth Director for Asia & MENA at Kahoot!, to discuss findings from the newly released "2026 Kahoot! Gen Z Report: Singapore Edition – Transition, Tension, and Talent Retention." According to the report, 51% of Gen Z employees say they feel engaged at work, but a striking 49% fall into the disengaged or “neutral middle” — a vulnerable group that is neither thriving nor fully checked out. This “neutral middle” includes 29% who feel neither engaged nor disengaged, and 20% who report being actively disengaged, revealing a fragile emotional connection to the workplace. The study highlights what Gen Z says they need: more structured onboarding (45%), clearer expectations (44%), and greater access to mentors or peer coaches (40%). They also want training that is more engaging (37%), more interactive (31%), and less passive and time‑consuming. Ahteram explains how gamified, interactive learning can bridge the gap between classroom-style structure and corporate reality — and why supporting Gen Z is now business‑critical for Singapore’s talent‑driven economy.
