Recruiting the Next Generation of Soldiers
This seminar is focused on attracting Generation Z military and civilians into a Special Operations Forces career. Millennials (b. 1980-1995) now comprise a large majority of military service men and women and Generation Z (b. 1996-2010) is beginning their careers. Roughly 70% of young people (Gen Z) today indicate that they want to be entrepreneurs, using their skills to do something meaningful outside of a traditional institutional context. So, how can the military engage and attract this tech-savvy, creative, and diverse generational cohort? This program will present an overview of Generation Z traits and values. Attendees will learn practical strategies for communicating and connecting with young people as they seek to recruit qualified individuals to serve in the military, and/or in a more focused way in Army Special Operations Forces.

We will look at key strategies for effectively engaging those we are training and working with across generations and cultures. We will conclude with a look at inter-generational leadership, with unique implications for the military context. |
