Generation Z: CURIOUS

Generation Z is living in the new curiosity. They are seeking for new inspirations and experience.


Generation Z: Curious.

Authority is no longer deserved by knowledge and motivation, but by inspiration and experience. (Rene Boender, 2011). This generation is naturally curious, and have access to tools which can immediately fulfill their need for information. When you forgot the name of this famous moviestar, just google it on your phone. Since “knowledge” is so accessible, inspiration and experience has become increasingly important and valuable for this generation, more than knowledge or motivation. Furthermore, this generation invented a new life stage between adolescent and adult in which they are seeking for their own living values by travelling and eduction. (Robert Marantz Henig, 2010). Since we become older and older we have more time to spent in our lives, resulted in this new lifestage first investigated by Jeffrey Jenssen Arnett. In this stage, the curiosity of Generation Z is expressed by trying out different educations, romantic partners, homes and visit different countries, looking for their own meaning of life
