The Mick Clifford Podcast: In defence of Denis O’Brien’s stance on work ethic and Gen Z attitudes

DCU’s Eoin O’Malley discusses youth work ethic, entitlement, and whether remote working delivers on its early promise

The Mick Clifford Podcast with Eoin O’Malley

Comments by billionaire Denis O’Brien that some young people now feel entitled and that there is a decline in work ethic among the young have received significant negative reaction. 

However, one voice saying O’Brien was talking sense is political scientist Eoin O’Malley, an associate professor at DCU.

O’Malley, through his work, has firsthand experience of the challenges facing young people emerging from education today. 

He also has strong opinions on whether remote working is truly effective.

Eoin is this week’s guest on The Mick Clifford Podcast.
