Engaging Generation Z: The emerging customer and employee
Digital transformation has led to increased expectations of employees and customers for personalisation, innovation, customisation and immediacy. Generation Z have grown up in a world of fast changing technologies, seen the rise of artificial intelligence, digital disruption and online communities. As the emerging cohort of employees they bring a new approach to work and have new expectations of the employee experience. As consumers they are constantly immersed in improved personalised experiences and as a result they expect more from companies and brands. In this session Claire will unpack the keys to understanding the next generation of employees and consumers and how Genesys can be best positioned to engage them in this digital world.
