Our future workers: Gen Z and Gen Alpha

This is a straightforward, people-first conversation about the future of work from the lens of the generations shaping it.

Younger generations are entering the workforce with different expectations, priorities and ways of working. In this session, we’ll look at what the research tells us about our two youngest generations:

• Gen Z, born: 1997-2012, 12-28 years old

• Gen Alpha, born: 2013-today, 0-12 years old 

  
  

Only a fraction of Gen Z have hit our workplaces so far and the workplace shifts are already immense. Half of Gen Z is still in school and training. And Gen Alpha is close behind. 

So we’ll explore what we do know already and what’s still murky. We’ll look at trends we’re seeing and how these might impact our workplaces. And we’ll consider what’s the same and what’s different in these generations.
