How Generation Thrive is helping modern workplaces empower modern employees.
What does Generation Thrive do?
Generation Thrive helps organisations retain, upskill, and empower their emerging workforce and future leaders. We do this through our evidence based and measurable online Personal Leadership and coaching programs.
We provide an easy to implement toolkit and offer 1:1 coaching and facilitated workshops that provide the skills, habits and attitudes that create a thriving workforce.
Your employees are your biggest asset, and your new to work and emerging leaders require and want evidence-based training and development opportunities, beyond the technical skills that help give them tools to handle what life throws their way, activate their full potential, and empowers them with skills to flourish in their life and career.
How we do it
Over 12 weeks, we work with your team to define what success is to them and develop 4 key transferrable skill sets in the areas that matter most, including:
Personal leadership - Increasing employee’s self-determination, drive, and motivation
Enterprise skills - The essential “soft skills” required for success beyond the technical skills i.e., communication, collaboration, goal planning, critical thinking, time management and digital literacy
Social & Emotional Intelligence - Skills in relationship building, self-awareness, decision making and self-management
Wellbeing & Resilience - Skills to build social, emotional, and psychological wellbeing, increase adaptability and solution focused thinking
Why we do it and the problems we help solve, are across 4 key areas.
Developing enterprise and employability skills for young Australians
A report from the Foundation for Young Australians revealed that the average transition time from education to work is 4.7 years compared to 1 year in 1986. Our rapidly changing world of work requires young adults to not only require core technical skills for the job, but to rethink the skills they need to not only maintain employment but to also build a successful career and thrive in the workplace.
A recent Future of Jobs report, by the World Economic Forum, identifies trends across 20 economies in 12 industry sectors, and shows for people entering the workforce, the top 10 key skills they will require to thrive in work include:
Analytical thinking and innovation
Active learning and learning strategies
Creativity, originality, and initiative
Technology design and programming
Critical thinking and analysis
Complex problem-solving
Leadership and social influence
Emotional intelligence
Reasoning, problem-solving
Systems analysis and evaluation
By 2030 Gen Z will make up a third of the working population and will be increasingly important for organisations to invest in training and development opportunities that add value and upskill this workforce to retain and remain competitive.
Support staff retention and engagement
We see recent research from McKinsey showing that 43% of workers are considering leaving their role in the next three to six months from a lack of career development opportunities and advancement potential. Employees more than ever before seek value and investment in their contributions, want to have meaningful work and feel the pinch of burnout, and increased skills gaps.
Create mentally healthier workplaces
In addition, we see:
43.7% of Australians have experienced a mental health disorder at some stage in their life. (According to 2022 ABS National study in Mental Health and Wellbeing)
75% of Australian workers have felt the impacts of burnout
Only 31% of Australian workers feel they have the skills to deal with workplace stress
Giving back to the community
As a certified Social Enterprise, our profits go to Youth Opportunities Australia, working in the preventative space with their programs and services that empower and give opportunities to youth who are vulnerable, at risk or face adversity to access tools and training to create their own skills, habits and attitudes that lead them to success.
Arming your employees with personal leadership and enterprise skills, increases productivity, retention, staff satisfaction, wellbeing, and engagement levels. It adds to your employee value proposition, providing organisations an opportunity to not just invest in the employee but the person, ensuring their organisation thrives.
