  • Generational change
    • Understanding and engaging with Generation Alpha
      The next generation of young people are known as Generation Alpha. Born between the years of 2010 and 2024, they will be the largest generation in the istory of the world. Although they are the children and students of today, they are the university graduates, employees and consumers of tomorrow. They are truly the 21st Century generation, with the whole of their formative
      years lived in this century. They are mobile, digital, global, visual and social. Their lives are post-lifestage, their learning is post-linear and their careers post-structural. In this session, hear from the social researchers who coined
      the term Generation Alpha and wrote the book on them, as we outline how to best engage with the most formally educated, technologically literate and materially endowed generation in history.
    • The intergenerational workforce; creating culture, purpose and impact
      Over the last couple of years the world of work has undergone a massive transformation. From COVID-19 to remote working, portfolio careers and the growth of the start-up culture - how, where and when we work has significantly changed. Additionally, we have more generations mixing in the workplace than ever before. This session looks at how to create an engaging workplace culture for a diverse workforce to bring about greater productivity, engagement and wellbeing.
  • Leadership
    • Work wellbeing: Leading thriving teams in rapidly changing times
      In any given week, we spend more than a third of our waking hours at work, so it is the place we most need to get wellbeing right. It is also a key priority for workers, with 83% saying it is up to the employer to facilitate. Based on her book Work Wellbeing: Leading thriving teams in rapidly changing times, in this session Ashley will provide a practical, data-driven and engaging guide to work wellbeing; equipping leaders, managers and employees with a thorough understanding of what work wellbeing is, why it’s a non-negotiable for the future and how to achieve it.
    • Recruiting, retaining & training the new generations at work
      The future is shaped not just by the technological changes but also the sociological changes. It is critical to understand the attitudes, values and expectations of the diverse generations comprising today’s workforce. This session will outline the new demographics and the social trends which have shaped Gen Y and Gen Z and will identify the HR implications of these new attitudes, values, and workplace priorities of today’s employees. Ashley Fell will highlight the implications of this for effective employer branding, attraction and retention strategies, workplace communications and leadership styles.
  • Demographic insights
    • A demographic snapshot of Australia: Now and towards 2030
      To engage with people and connect with communities, we need to understand the data and the demographics. Population analysis tells a fascinating story of our world today and reveals clear trend lines. In this session, Ashley uses the latest
      demographic data to give a snapshot of the changes, the trends, the challenges and the opportunities for your brand, organisation and sector. And don't be fooled by the word demographic or data - this session will be fast-paced, engaging and inspiring.
