¿Te preguntas cómo gestionar el talento de diferentes generaciones en un entorno laboral cada vez más flexible? Las generaciones más jóvenes, como los Millennials y la Generación Z, tienen expectativas laborales diferentes en comparación con generaciones anteriores, como los Baby Boomers. Aunque muchos siguen preocupados por la inestabilidad laboral, valoran especialmente la flexibilidad, el equilibrio entre la vida personal y profesional, y un propósito claro en su carrera. Según el estudio “El mix generacional en las empresas españolas” de Sodexo, la conciliación es una de las principales prioridades para la Generación Z, por encima incluso de la remuneración.

En esta sesión en colaboración con Lucca, te explicamos cómo atraer, integrar y retener talento multigeneracional, adaptándote a los nuevos modelos de trabajo.

En este webinar:

• Cómo han cambiado las expectativas laborales y qué buscan hoy las nuevas generaciones.
• Estrategias prácticas para contratar perfiles de todas las generaciones, ajustándote a sus motivaciones.
• Cómo crear un onboarding eficiente y personalizado para integrar a cada generación en un entorno híbrido o remoto.

Nuestros invitados:

• Alex Collart – Cofundador de Outvise, experto en marketplaces de talento bajo demanda.
• Laura Ramos – Product Marketing Manager en Lucca, experta en optimización de procesos de recursos humanos.
• Ana Kramarenko – Head of Marketing en Outvise, moderadora de la sesión.

Are you ready to take your AI and digital transformation efforts to the next level? This workshop isn’t about the latest tech trends—it’s about what really drives success: people.
