Bridging the generational divide: A blueprint for Leaders and HR to empower GenZ in a multi-generational workforce.
Today’s organisations must navigate five generations in the workforce, each with distinct motivations and expectations. Generation Z (born 1995–2010) arrives as true digital natives who demand meaningful, purpose-driven work yet report the lowest engagement of any cohort - over half say they’re not engaged at work. They crave frequent, real-time feedback, flexibility in how and where they work, and clear pathways for growth, but often clash with legacy hierarchies and infrequent performance reviews. To win with GenZ while leveraging institutional knowledge, leaders and HR must deploy cross-generational and reverse-mentoring programs, agile feedback loops, purpose-embedded culture design, and hyper-personalised development journeys.
This session equips leaders and HR with a no-nonsense, research-backed playbook to transform multi-generational challenges into competitive advantage, ensuring GenZ thrives alongside every other generation.
Learning Objectives:
Understand GenZ’s Value System: They prioritise impact, transparency, and wellbeing over traditional perks.
Implement Key Initiatives that suit All Generations: Including reverse mentoring, continuous coaching and micro-learning.
Build in Flexibility & Autonomy: Hybrid work and project-centric models increase cross-generational collaboration and retention.
