A new generation of employees has made its way into the workplace, also known as Generation Z. Join us for a 1-hour virtual lunch break as we discuss how to attract, engage, and retain the youngest pool of talent in today’s workforce.
About this event
A new generation of employees has made its way into the workplace. Although we don’t like to place people into buckets, did you know that employees under the age of 26 are technically considered part of Generation Z?
This session will be focused on how to attract, engage and retain the youngest pool of talent in today’s workforce! We will also be playing a fun trivia game to better relate to our younger colleagues.
The best part is, the session will be run by a Gen Zer herself, Melanie Wertzberger - the author of Company Culture for the Next Generation, an e-book that shares insights from her research gathered from over 1000 Gen Z employees.
