Session Description

Generation Z, which outnumbers Millennials, is entering the workforce. And it won’t be long before they become influencers in business decisions.

The differences between Millennials and those coming behind them are significant. And even though it will be a few years before Gen Zers, who were born between 1997 and 2012, are making decisions on multi-million dollar construction projects, A/E/C firms are already challenged with attracting and retaining them as employees.

A/E/C firms must make it a priority to get to know Gen Z and start developing and testing marketing strategies that will earn their attention and capture their business.

As your firm braces itself for the Z invasion, this webinar will help you prepare. It will cover aspects related to understanding, attracting, engaging, and retaining the next generation of employees and clients so your firm can continue to grow.

Session Learning Objectives

During our June webinar, participants will:

Uncover the primary characteristics of Gen Z and what differentiates them from the previous generations
Learn what drives Gen Z and what strategies and approaches will become central to their firm’s ability to reach, connect with, and retain this new generation of A/E/C employees and future clients
Discover how to optimize their firm’s brand and digital and social communication channels to meet Gen Z’s expectations and preferences
Become familiar with what’s next in marketing trends, technologies, and tools in the context of what’s important to future A/E/C customers
