Leverage Gen Z’s strengths to boost engagement and retention
The workforce is poised for a significant shift as Gen Z is set to finally surpass Boomers in numbers. This pivotal moment calls for an urgent need to learn how to effectively collaborate with this generation and harness the potential of this emerging talent.
Drawing from our experience and based on our latest whitepaper research, we have compiled our recommendations on how employers can utilise Gen Z’s strengths and understand their needs and behaviours to encourage more engagement and retain them for longer.
Is your organisation ready for Gen Z?
For over 30 years we have been powering the people behind tech and innovation to provide talent solutions to clients across the globe through our three career programmes: Graduate, Returners and Ex-Forces. This diverse range of programmes has allowed us to work with multiple generations providing a comprehensive understanding of the unique strengths each age group brings to the workplace.
The findings of our experience and research are presented in our latest whitepaper which delves into Gen Z’s self-identity, workplace preferences and distinctive characteristics that set them apart from other generations. Our research also provides employers with insightful data and actionable advice to understand and harness the impact of this generation effectively.
