A Dental and Dental Hygiene Faculty Webinar-Preparing for Gen Z: Technology, Tech Shame, and the Workplace

According to findings from tech giant Hewlett-Packard (HP), “1 in 5 young office workers feel judged when experiencing tech issues, compared to just 1 in 25 of their more mature peers.” HP called this phenomenon “Tech Shame.” As future generations join our clinical operations, we must be aware of their unique relationship with technology and preemptively address the obstacles they’ll face. You will learn about “Tech Shame,” self-assess your operations in the context of Gen Z’s technical expectations, and identify strategies to mitigate this phenomenon within your institution. Participants will learn how to define “tech shame,” self-assess operations in the context of Gen Z’s technical expectation, and identify strategies to mitigate “tech shame” within your organization.
