How we will lead the next generation of work
Framework Principles

Adapt to Empower
Lead with Authenticity
Innovate with Insight
Grow by Listening
NEXTGEN is a framework for reimagining how organisations can grow with the people and priorities of tomorrow.
Designed for forward-looking organisations, the NEXTGEN Transformation Framework empowers key decision-makers to assess and reshape the operating model, culture, and leadership mindset to connect meaningfully with Generation Z and Alpha.
The research-informed framework aims to evolve the organisation to meet the expectations of a new generation—through purpose, adaptability, and human-centred transformation.
Purpose - Create a mission that matters and relatable.
Adaptability - Co-creating ways of working that enhances relationships with self, peers and the world at large.
Authenticity - Starts from the leadership and down the ranks, from inside the enterprise into its brand
Innovation - Tap into the data and generational intelligence to evolve products and services
Human-centred - Curiosity in the humanness of the workforce and consumers, and building humanity into enterprise functions within and the products and services without.
Using the NEXTGEN framework, organisations become a powerful brand that is backed by an operation, infrastructure and culture that is authentic, ethical, innovative, humane and most importantly, relevant. The appeal of such a brand to Gen Z and Gen Alpha cannot be underestimated.
Framework Principles
Autonomy Fuels Motivation
Identity Matters
Feedback must be real-time (and real!)
Peer Influence is powerful
Tech Fluency = leadership currency
In an age where talent expectations are rapidly evolving, the CORE+ Framework equips future-forward organisations to unlock the full potential of the Generation Z and Generation Alpha workforce.
Informed by psychological research and built by real-world insights, CORE+ reshapes the workplace by focusing on what truly drives engagement and retention today:
Culture that reflects shared values, inclusivity, and belonging
Ownership that empowers young employees to lead, innovate, and grow
Recognition that affirms contribution in real time and in meaningful ways
Empowerment through flexible roles, learning autonomy, and digital fluency
+ Purpose—the essential “plus” that connects individual work to meaningful, world-shaping impact
With CORE+, businesses do not just adapt to the new workforce—they thrive by co-creating environments where young talent is inspired, committed, and aligned with the organisation’s vision. It is more than a framework; it is the culture catalyst of the next generation.
