Pukyong National University Amplifies Voices of 'MZ Generation' Employees

On the 7th, Pukyong National University held the '2023 Pukyong Junior Board 1st Launch Ceremony' in the conference room on the 2nd floor of the university headquarters.

The Junior Board refers to a consultative body where current members directly generate constructive ideas and participate in organizational improvement processes to develop the organizational culture. This has recently been expanding to companies and local governments.

As the proportion of young employees aged 19 to 39, called the 'MZ generation,' increased significantly from 27% in 2019 to 43% this year, Pukyong National University launched the Junior Board to actively reflect their voices in university operations such as personnel, administration, and policy.

The first term staff of the 2023 Pukyong Junior Board are holding an inauguration ceremony and taking a group commemorative photo.

The university selected 13 employees under the age of 39 interested in public service culture and personnel innovation through an open call, considering gender, job series, and rank.

Starting with the launch ceremony, these members will engage in proposal and advisory activities for one year, discovering improvement agendas and suggesting alternatives regarding public service culture and personnel innovation from the perspective of young employees.

They also plan to maximize the effectiveness of their activities by combining various meetings, domestic and international benchmarking offline activities, and SNS and online activities familiar to the younger generation.

A Pukyong National University official said, “We expect the Junior Board activities to strengthen communication with the future generation of the university organization and bring new changes and innovations to university administration.”
