Abstract

Rapid changes in the business environment due to the development of digital technology, globalization, and labor market dynamics demand innovation and transformation in human resource management (HRDM). The younger generation, especially millennials and Gen Z, are strategic assets that will determine the future direction of the world of work. Therefore, organizations need to implement an adaptive MSDM approach that is oriented towards the development of competencies, creativity, and resilience of the younger generation. This article discusses various forms of innovation and transformation in HRM, including the use of digital technology in talent recruitment and development, the implementation of technology-based continuous learning, the strengthening of an inclusive organizational culture, and collaborative leadership strategies. The results of the study show that technology integration, work flexibility, and value- and competency-based talent management are key factors in preparing the younger generation for the future world of work. Thus, the transformation of MSDM not only serves as an adaptation effort, but also as a proactive strategy to produce superior human resources, be globally competitive, and be ready to face the challenges of the digital era.
