Hustle Culture, SMEs, and Gen-Z

In this day and age, the hustle culture is very common among enterprises of all levels. Over the years, it has become a pervasive part of modern life, with entrepreneurs pushing themselves to the limit to succeed in their business ventures. This relentless pursuit of productivity and success can have serious negative effects on mental health.

Today on Enterprise Biz Bytes, we unpack whether the hustle culture has brought sustainable success for enterprises particularly the SME sector, how modern work practices can increase efficiency without bringing negative impacts to employees as well as breaking down the generational gap or mindset at the workplace.

Produced by: Kishan Sivaswamy, Carol Wong
