Abstract The quick transition of Generation Z (Gen Z) into the labor market, specifically into information technology (IT) industries, has presented opportunities and challenges for companies.The behavior of Gen Z employees is explored in this research as well as how it can influence performance management strategies. The research applied percentage analysis, regression, correlation, and structural equation modelling (SEM) to identify patterns and correlations among data collected from 467 IT workers through structured questionnaires. The findings illustrate how Gen Z highly prefers autonomy, diversity, mental health support, real-time feedback, and purpose-driven work. While correlation findings emphasized the positive impact of inclusion and purpose fit on engagement, regression analysis confirmed autonomy as the optimal predictor of performance. An integrated model whereby organisational and psychological resources interact to impact performance outcomes was confirmed through SEM. Through support for motivation theories and the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) model, the research makes a theoretical contribution. It also offers insights for HR practitioners. Digital feedback systems, flexible working hours, inclusive leadership, and mental health initiatives are some of the recommendations. In conclusion, this research presents a model for creating flexible and inclusive performance management systems that leverage Gen Z's ability for creativity and organisational effectiveness as well as solve their behavioural problems.
