Abstract

Aim: In this paper we analyse the L&D related results of the 2024 international EUPAN research. We explore Gen Z’s main characteristics and needs; furthermore present the means by which the different countries provide for the development of their central government officials. We also examine to which extent generational awareness is present. We place the results of the parallel Hungarian generational research into international context.Methodology: We apply an international questionnaire survey (N= 26), a questionnaire survey of Hungarian government officials (N= 12.500), document and content analysis, statistical data analysis as well as interviews (N= 8).Findings: When designing L&D systems the perception of generational differences is as important as the differences themselves. In addition to generational affiliation attention must be paid to various other factors. Generational characteristics can be translated into needs which in turn can be translated into strategy guidelines. The discourse is useful as it draws attention to trends that are relevant not only for gen Z but the entire workforce (e.g. exponentially increasing digitalisation, mental well-being challenges). We display a range of good practices.Value: The paper offers insight for modernising L&D strategy in public administration. Based on extensive international and national questionnaire research, we identify trends and good practices related to, among others, mentoring, training, coaching, self-directed learning, personalised development, microlearning as well as digital platforms.
