Generative AI triggers rise of Gen Z, millennial mentors in India Inc

It was a regular day at Coromandel International, an agrochemicals company. A routine meeting was scheduled between a millennial executive and a 55-year-old senior decision-maker. Or so it seemed. They were to talk about generative artificial intelligence (GenAI).

Ordinarily, it would be the senior executive showing the junior the ropes. However, these are no ordinary times, thanks to the advent and adoption of AI. So, once inside the meeting room, the roles switched. The senior put on his learning hat, while the 29-year-old assumed the role of a mentor. Besides GenAI, they discussed social media strategies to achieve greater employee engagement at the company.
