Miriam Dirkse (Rijkswaterstaat), Laurens van Nues (Magnet.me), and Alexander Jong (Endeavour) took the stage. All three organizations are successful in engaging and captivating Generation Z. Endeavour employs a 'pizza and beer' approach. Alexander from Endeavour says, "I could tell you a lot, but come and experience the atmosphere yourself." Additionally, at Endeavour, the focus is on the 'whole person' and not just on 'the colleague at their job'.
