With GCSE and A Level results now out, the next generation of workers is already here. Millenials are now poised to be the dominant generation in the workforce with Gen Z not far behind, beginning to outnumber Boomers. These younger generations are pushing HR leaders to rethink traditional processes and leadership styles. Organisations therefore need to create supportive, people first cultures. Job roles change, technology is ever evolving, and new skills become essential.
These upcoming new workers want to prioritise growth and development, and employers realise with a highly competitive labour market, not offering these opportunities can be detrimental to both recruitment and retention. The ability of organisations to adapt to current trends and keep pace with rapid changes is vitally important to stay ahead of competition. Key for organisations is harnessing the new qualifications of Gen Z, developing their skills and keeping them engaged, offering them the chance to excel.
