South Africa’s professional landscape is currently in the midst of a subtle yet profound generational transformation. Over the coming decade, Generation Z—those born between the late 1990s and early 2010s—will occupy an increasingly substantial portion of the labor market. This demographic wave is set to reshape diverse sectors, moving beyond creative and tech hubs into the core of the nation’s finance and public sectors. Mondli Makhanya spoke to Nene Molefi, CEO of Mandate Molefi Consultants (change and diversity expert), Asanda Ngoasheng, Diversity expert and Nancy Dusani, graduate in public relations and communication and Intern at Decode.
