Top Indian and Chinese military commanders will meet on Monday at Moldo to discuss the <keyword id="6417196" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="border-dispute">border dispute</keyword>, especially in the <keyword id="1255425" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Pangong-Lake">Pangong Lake</keyword> area, in eastern Ladakh, sources said. This would be the sixth meeting between two military commanders in the last four months. This time, a senior Ministry of External Affairs official -- Joint Secretary, East Asia, Navin Srivastava -- will be joining the Indian delegation. The delegation, headed by 14 Corps commander Lt Gen Harinder Singh, would also include two Major Generals - <keyword id="9971996" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="major-gen-abhijit-bapat">Major Gen Abhijit Bapat</keyword>, and Major <keyword id="9971995" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="gen-padam-shekhawat">Gen Padam Shekhawat</keyword> - apart from Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP) Inspector General Deepam Seth and four brigadiers. In August, during the fifth round of Corps Commander level discussions - between Lt Gen Singh and South Xinjiang Military District chief, Major Gen Liu Lin, both the representatives deliberated upon the prevailing situation in Pangong Lake, the biggest flashpoint in the standoff. "The meeting of these two military leaders will start at 9 a.m.," said a source, adding that the two commanders met for the first time on June 6 when China had agreed to withdraw their forces from all the places which India had raised objections to. But then a barbaric attack at patrolling point 14 in Galwan Valley on June 15 was carried out by Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) in which 20 Indian soldiers and unknown number of Chinese soldiers were killed. The clash occurred at the south bank of Galwan river, which flows in an east-west direction before its confluence with Shyok river. There were the first fatalities faced by the Indian Army in a clash with the PLA since 1975 when an Indian patrol was ambushed by Chinese troops in Arunachal Pradesh. Now the delegates are meeting to discuss the de-escalation at Pangong Lake where both sides' troops are at rifle range at four locations - three on the southern bank and one on the northern. "At these places, troops are just a few hundred metres away," the source added. On the north bank, the troops are in an eyeball-to-eyeball situation between Finger 3 and Finger 4 -- the military term for mountain spurs jutting into the lake -- where warning shots were fired in the air by both the armies. On the south bank, the two sides' troops are a few metres away at Spanggur Gap, Mukhpari, and Rezang La. China first made provocative military moves and thereafter, India too deployed troops at these locations. At these two places, both the countries' troops have fired warning shots to stop intimidate each other. PLA troops made movements to occupy the area between Finger 3 and 4 earlier this month which led to firing of around 200 shots in the air. The north bank of the lake is divided into 8 fingers that are contested by both sides. India claims the Line of Actual Control is at Finger 8 and had been holding on to area till Finger 4 but in a clear alteration of status quo, the Chinese have been camping at Finger 4 and have set up fortifications between Finger 5 and 8. India and China are engaged in a four-month-long standoff at the LAC in eastern Ladakh. Despite several levels of dialogue, there has not been any breakthrough and the deadlock continues.

More than 20 people, ranging from millennials to baby boomers, sent emails describing their experiences managing Gen Z.Two people said they didn't feel young workers were lazy, while the rest criticized <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/google-employee-says-he-works-one-hour-days-fortune-2023-8">the generation's work ethic</a>. Insider verified employment of the supervisors cited in this story.<h2>One manager said some Gen Zers struggle to focus on work</h2>Jeff Elkins, the director of security for a Florida casino, accused his Gen Z hires of frequently searching for "gray areas" on issues that he believed were "very black and white."He said his industry is highly regulated with strict controls, and his young employees have called their standard operating procedures "antiquated." These employees have also called their standards conduct "outdated" and that they "feel they don't apply to them," Elkins said.Amber Forrest a 28-year-old pizza shop manager, told Insider that many of her Gen Z employees spend work hours eating free food, pocketing tips, and hanging out with their friends."It's a hit or miss," she said. Of her young hires, she said, "I would say 70% don't work out because they <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/gen-z-intern-5-hour-work-day-interview-sparks-debate-2023-7">lack motivation and initiative</a>. It's irritating because most of the time I end up doing all the work despite my efforts of delegating."The whole ordeal is "beyond frustrating," said Forrest — a young Millennial who recalled when it was her generation being labeled as lazy."How the tides have changed is jarring," she said.Sean Cusack, a 41-year-old director of a biotech startup, defended Gen Z's work style and said he's found some ways that they work best.

This means they may struggle to write emails or find professional settings challenging.Managers could help them develop these skills, and talk to their younger employees about what motivates them at work, experts said.India-based career coach Abhijit Bhattacharya told Insider that many Gen Z employees are looking for more meaningful work over higher pay."They are more likely to trade off salary for better quality of work although salary is an important factor," Bhattacharya said. "However, most organizations do not have high-quality roles in entry-level positions, which is a major cause [of] why they feel disengaged."Bhattacharya, who has 15 years of experience as a career coach, believes that Gen Z prioritizes "personalized career development in their journeys."In January, C-level human resources executive Gianna Driver said that company leaders will need to cultivate a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/hr-execs-the-biggest-workplace-challenges-of-2023-ibm-hilton-2023-1#gianna-driver-the-chief-human-resources-officer-at-the-cybersecurity-company-exabeam-finding-and-keeping-top-talent-3">"culture of psychological safety"</a> with work-life balance and diverse hiring if they want to keep Gen Z workers engaged."A lot of Gen Zers feel more drawn by the mission of a company and what their goal is, as opposed to things like salary," Michael Yan, a founder of the job-search platform Simplify, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/how-to-manage-isolation-finances-and-mental-health-as-a-gen-z-founder-2022-11">previously told Insider in November</a>. <h2>Young workers are using TikTok and taking courses to succeed at work</h2>Some Gen Zers say they're also struggling with <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/workplace-jargon-gen-z-and-millennials-left-out-work-2023-6?_gl=1*ozzai3*_ga*NDk0OTkwMDg3LjE2NTQ3MDM2MDA.*_ga_E21CV80ZCZ*MTY5MjYzNjM0Mi43MTAuMS4xNjkyNjM2ODM5LjEyLjAuMA..">confusion and feeling left out</a> at work.

Managers say Gen Zers aren't getting work done and lack basic social skills – and it's driving them crazy

The talks between military representatives of India and China to discuss disengagement in the Depsang plains north of Galwan area started on Saturday morning near the <keyword id="49399" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Line-of-Actual-Control">Line of Actual Control</keyword>, sources said. The sources said that the Major General-level talks between Indian and Chinese armies is taking place at Daulat Beg Oldie for the de-escalation of troops and material in the Depsang plains. General Officer Commanding of 3 Mountain Division, Major General Abhijit Bapat, is leading the talks from the Indian side. The main agenda of the meeting is to address the situation in the Depsang plains that has seen big mobilisation of around 15,000 Chinese troops opposite Depsang. The Depsang plains is a table-top plateau to the north of Galwan and remains a major hotspot due to its strategic location since it provides access to the logistical hub and airstrip at Daulat Beg Oldie and the critical Karakoram Pass in the north. The meeting will seek to work out a system of pulling back troops and de-escalation from the 900 sq km plains situated at an altitude of 16,000 feet. The <keyword id="6354416" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Indian-Army">Indian Army</keyword> holds a majority of the Depsang plains area while the People's Liberation Army holds its eastern edge. Chinese troops are concentrating on an area called 'Bottleneck', 25 km from the strategic airfield at Daulat Beg Oldie. The troops on either side are denying patrolling rights to each other in the "grey zone" areas, where the perception of the Line of Actual Control varies by several kilometres. Saturday's meeting is the outcome of the Lieutenant General-level meetings, five of which have been conducted since June 6. Depsang plains has seen two major stand-offs in 2013 and 2014, besides dozens of face-offs annually when the troops of the two countries come close while patrolling. In the meantime, the Indian government has witnessed that China's commitment to disengagement at the Pangong Tso lake remains "unsatisfactory". India has directed its armed forces to prepare for a long haul.

Indian and Chinese army hold fresh talks to discuss disengagement in Depsang plains

Amid tension at the borders, top Indian and Chinese military delegations will meet for the third time on Tuesday in Chushul in Leh district, sources said The meeting will begin at 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday morning. "This time the talks will be held in Chushul on the Indian side. The last two meetings were held in Moldo on the Chinese side," said sources, adding that the agenda of the meeting would be to take forward the proposals made by both the countries for disengagement. "All contentious areas during the current standoff will be discussed to stabilise the situation," sources added. The last two meetings at the Corp Commander level were held on June 6 and June 22. On June 22, talks took place between Indian and Chinese military delegates for around 11 hours. The dialogue was held in a cordial, positive and constructive atmosphere and there was "mutual consensus to disengage". "Modalities for disengagement from all friction areas in eastern Ladakh were discussed," the Indian Army had stated. The meeting between 14 Corps Commander Lieutenant General Harinder Singh and South Xinjiang Military District chief Major General Liu Lin happened on the lines of the one they held at the Chushul-Moldo border personnel meeting (BPM) point in eastern Ladakh on June 6. Also, Major General-level dialogue took place for three consecutive days after the violent clash at Patrolling Point 14 in Galwan Valley on June 15 left 20 Indian soldiers dead. The three-day talks were carried out to ease the tense situation and to get 10 Indian soldiers released, including four officers, who were in Chinese captivity. Major General Abhijit Bapat, who is the Commander of the 3 Division of the Indian Army, had raised several points with the Chinese with regard to the incident on the intervening night of June 15/16. The clash occurred at the South bank of Galwan river, which flows in an east-west direction before its confluence with Shayok river, in which 20 Indian soldiers were killed by the Chinese People's Liberation Army troops. Those were the first casualties faced by the Indian Army in a clash with the People's Liberation Army since 1975 when an Indian patrol was ambushed by Chinese troops in Arunachal Pradesh. Sources said that Indian Army troopers were outnumbered by 1:5 ratio when they came under attack from the PLA soldiers at Patrolling Point 14 along the Line of Actual Control in eastern Ladakh. "The numbers were stacked up against the Indian Army troopers. Yet, the Indian side decided to fight the PLA troopers. The Indian soldiers were outnumbered 1:5 by the Chinese troopers," sources said. China is also said to have used thermal imaging drones to trace the Indian Army soldiers scattered on the treacherous terrain before brutally attacking them.

The study, which looked at mental health challenges and stigmas in the US workplace, polled 1,500 respondents ages 16 and older working full-time.That's significantly higher than the overall percentage of respondents who have left a job for mental health reasons - 20%, according to the study. This indicates a "generational shift in awareness," wrote the authors of the report, Kelly Greenwood, Vivek Bapat, and Mike Maughan. That shift is no surprise, considering that millennials have also become known as "<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/millennial-generation-labels-brokest-burnout-loneliest-2019-8#the-therapy-generation-10">the therapy generation</a>."

Drug overdoses are the most common cause of death.There are a few reasons behind the uptick, one of which is that young adults are more inclined to engage in risk-taking behaviors.
