Generating Alpha ​

Gen Alpha is the next generation of workers, currently around 16, who are coming into the workforce, following Gen Z, Gen Y, Gen X and baby boomers.

Australian companies need to be ready to handle five generations of workers as more baby boomers stay in the workforce, while the new technologically savvy, socially conscious generation alpha are starting their first jobs, says a HR guy.

“There is a new cohort coming into the workplace – generation alpha – who have a degree of digital fluency which is greater than all four of the other generations before them combined,” he said.
 
These kids are way before their time.
They are so quick to press buttons, scroll and swipe that when a device can't keep up due to system constraints, they blame it for glitching.
They really need quantum computing to catch up with them.

and, not that these things are delineated so precisely, evidently the first of Gen Beta was born today, 01 Jan 2025. Most of them should see the 22nd Century
 
I have 2 gen z and 2 gen alpha.
The gen alpha around 8-9. They are so far ahead on a capacity to understand concepts and high in emotional intelligence it's hard to believe they are so young.

I actually worry that childhood has really diminished to a window that is too brief. Gen Z seems low on dedicated. Gen A has extremely short attention spans. Social media has really shaped them.
