Careers seeking purpose: A conversation on Gen Z and impact work

How are impact careers evolving as more early-career professionals enter the social sector? In this edition of jigyaasa, we explore how Gen Z is shaping conversations around purpose, growth, feedback, sustainability, and workplace culture in impact organisations. The discussion covers: - What Gen Z brings into the social sector - Why asking “why” is becoming central to meaningful work - Process vs flexibility, and how context shapes both - How learning flows across generations - What sustainable, long-term careers in impact can look like Featuring voices from across career stages at The/Nudge Institute, this conversation moves beyond stereotypes and focuses on lived experience from field implementation realities to organisational culture and leadership.
