New Report: Attitudes and Behaviours in the Workplace

New Report: Attitudes and Behaviours in the Workplace

How can we better prepare young people for the world of work? How can employers and educators collaborate to foster the right attitudes and behaviours for workplace success?

Our latest report, developed in partnership with Skills Builder Partnership , explores these critical questions. It builds on insights from a recent roundtable discussion, bringing together leaders from education, industry, and policy to tackle the challenges of workplace readiness.

Key themes from the report:

  • Defining the attitudes and behaviours that drive success
  • Bridging the gap between education and employer expectations
  • Equipping teachers to integrate workplace behaviours into learning
  • Helping employers become “young people ready”
  • Addressing generational and social mobility challenges

A key takeaway: Collaboration is essential

To ensure young people thrive in the workplace, employers, educators, and policymakers must work together to create a shared language around attitudes and behaviours—and provide structured support for young talent.
