The issue of formal and non-formal education of young people (Generation Z) is currently quite challenging. Generation Z significantly differs from the previous generation, in terms of personal values and motivational composition. Gender maj orly affects the personal structure of individuals and the development of managerial skills at the same time. The main goal of the paper is to analyse the composition of personality, motivational characteristics of Generation Z from the perspective of gender diversity, with a focus on the development of managerial skills. The research sample consists of $\mathrm{n}=150$ respondents (students of Generation Z). Standardized psychodiagnostics questionnaires (NEO questionnaire and DMV questionnaire) were used for data collection. Gender diversity has an impact on the development of managerial skills due to different personality assumptions. The authors of this paper consider the identification of statistically significant differences between gender and personality characteristics (neuroticism and conscientiousness) the most important results of research, and have identified a statistically significant difference between motivational characteristics (motivation to perform and anxiety supporting performance) and gender of Generation Z. These findings can be used not only in the development of managerial skills, but also in the fields of formal education at universities and colleges.
