Gemma Hallett the Chief Mobiliser and Founder of miFuture talks to Aled Davies of Young Ambassadors Wales. Aled talks about collaboration with Sports Leaders UK, StreetGames Wales, Youth Sport Trust and the WCVA, who are collectively working to provide opportunities for young people to upskill through volunteering. They acknowledge the instant gratification of volunteering, and everyone loves “Stash”. 

Through volunteering Aled is empowering young activists to make change and take control, through trust- ownership and co-creation. We are big fans of volunteering proving opportunity to gain confidence, communication, planning, evaluation, self reflection and time management skills that will lead to employability.

miThursday Thought 4 : Gen Z wont action your Career offer on Social Media

miThursday Thought 4 : Gen Z wont action your Career offer on Social Media

Gemma Hallett shares why you need to live in a functional app on a young persons smartphone and why ‘actions’ are happening away from social media.   Your presence and visibility on a functional app is crucial! It’s where the “action” happens. 

So when it comes to raising awareness of your career opportunities for Generation Z, you best make sure it's in a compartmentalised place on their smartphone to make the application and get their info... relying on social media with a link to a job description page wont cut it anymore, it's a huge frustration and pain point for Gen Z. 

But focusing just on the social media aspect right now, we share with you our learning and insights into this generation.

miThursday Thought 1: Why Gen Z will change the world

Who are GenZ? They are not Millennials!!  We should be excited, but need to be prepared in Wales to allow this generation freedom to change the world, they are bringing a world of information, we need to get out of their way and work for them.  This week Gem shares why she loves this generation so much and what organisations should know as they march towards the labour market.
