Employee Competencies from the Perspective of Generation Z Representatives

Summary/Abstract: This article aims to identify key competencies for employees from the perspective of Generation Z. The study sought to answer the following questions: which competencies will be crucial for employees in organisations in the coming years, how they are perceived by representatives of Generation Z, and what forms of developing these competencies are preferred. The article discusses the concept and role of employee competencies in the changing labour market, from the perspective of Generation Z. The development of employee competencies increases the likelihood that organisations gain a competitive advantage in a dynamic, complex environment. The article presents the results of a literature review and a survey in which respondents identified key competencies that determine professional success amid rapid technological development. Based on the findings, the following competencies were highlighted: technological curiosity and openness to innovation, flexibility and adaptability to change, technological skills, and foreign language proficiency. Representatives of Generation Z prefer the following forms of competency development: online training, mentoring, internships, and study visits. The results contribute to the design of work environments that foster employee competencies and enable organisations to adapt effectively to the modern demands of the labour market.
