LinkedIn data: 73% of Gen Z founders fear reaching out to network
A new LinkedIn survey finds that while Gen Z entrepreneurship is rising, 73% of Gen Z respondents say fear of bothering others, sounding inauthentic, or being judged stops them from networking. This hesitation persists even though 83% of older generations say they're willing to help strangers who reach out, a rate matched by Gen Z's own willingness to help when asked.
