De la vie intérieure au monde extérieur : comment les femmes de la génération Z sont investies dans les études commerciales

Une enquête révèle que l’intérêt pour le secteur de la technologie stagne pour la carrière post-scolaire tandis que les États-Unis continuent d’attirer des talents mondiaux grâce à une mobilité qui rebondit 

RESTON, Virginie, 11 avr. 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Les personnes qui réfléchissent à retourner vers les écoles de commerce sont plus intéressées par le fait d’enrichir leur vie plutôt que d’augmenter leurs revenus, selon une enquête réalisée auprès des étudiants potentiels du programme d’études supérieures en management (GME) publiée par le Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC), une association mondiale représentant les principales écoles de commerce. Soixante-dix-neuf pour cent des étudiants potentiels dans le monde entier sont motivés pour poursuivre un GME afin d’améliorer leur vie et de développer leur potentiel (15 points de pourcentage de plus que le deuxième meilleur facteur de motivation, à savoir l’augmentation des revenus).

Par ailleurs, les femmes, la génération Y, les candidats américains sous-représentés et les étudiants potentiels de première génération sont tous statistiquement plus susceptibles d’indiquer une préférence de carrière post-GME pour le secteur public ou à but non lucratif, qui a tendance à être plus stable et socialement engagé, bien que moins lucratif que le secteur privé. La génération Z, d’un autre côté, est la plus intéressée à entrer dans le secteur de la finance et de la comptabilité et environ 10 points de pourcentage plus susceptible de citer l’augmentation de ses revenus et l’expansion de ses réseaux comme principaux facteurs de motivation pour poursuivre un GME que ses homologues plus âgés.

« En réponse aux demandes fréquemment reçues de nos écoles, nous avons posé d’autres questions dans notre enquête, car des changements significatifs dans la démographie des étudiants potentiels sont en cours. Il est essentiel de comprendre les candidats de la génération Z (à présent la plus importante génération à s’inscrire aux écoles de commerce), car les programmes prévoient d’étendre plus tard le pipeline », a déclaré Joy Jones, PDG du GMAC. « Nous souhaitons examiner de plus près les tendances parmi les femmes, la première génération et les candidats américains sous-représentés pour doter les écoles des connaissances qui assurent que chaque personne talentueuse puisse bénéficier pour elle des meilleures études commerciales. »

Les programmes de MBA à temps plein restent dominants, tandis que l’expérience en présentiel l’emporte pour la génération Z

Depuis 2019, le MBA sur deux ans a été le programme préféré parmi les candidats à l’échelle mondiale. Cette année, le MBA sur un an l’a surpassé en tant que choix de programme le plus populaire, bien que la différence reste dans la marge d’erreur. Ensemble, le MBA à temps plein de n’importe quelle durée continue de susciter plus d’intérêt que les programmes de MBA et de masters de commerce plus flexibles ou pour cadres.

La génération Z est très intéressée par le MBA sur deux ans, et la génération Y par le MBA sur un an. Bien qu’ayant grandi en tant que native du numérique, la génération Z montre aussi une forte préférence pour les études en présentiel, avec 80 % de la génération Z qui affiche une préférence pour ce mode contre 69 % de la génération Y. Cela pourrait être une indication de la situation de chaque génération dans sa carrière : les candidats plus âgés peuvent disposer de réseaux plus établis ou avoir plus de responsabilités au travail ou à leur domicile, tandis que les candidats plus jeunes sont plus intéressés par l’expansion de leurs réseaux et peuvent avoir plus de facilité à entrer et à sortir d’un GME.

La flexibilité parle aux candidats féminins alors que l’intérêt pour le secteur de la technologie stagne

Il est vrai que la préférence mondiale générale se maintient dans l’enseignement en présentiel. Toutefois, les programmes en ligne (et surtout hybrides) ont percé auprès de groupes plus susceptibles de bénéficier de la flexibilité qu’ils proposent, surtout auprès des candidats féminins, de la première génération et de la génération Y.

« Il ne fait aucun doute que ces programmes jouent un rôle important dans l’équité globale des études supérieures en management, attirant ainsi des candidats qui comptent sur la fourniture de programmes flexibles et ne pourraient autrement pas préparer un diplôme de commerce », a indiqué Anthony Wilbon, doyen de l’école de commerce de l’université Howard et membre du conseil d’administration du GMAC.

Après l’obtention du diplôme, le consulting reste la première industrie post-GME dans toutes les générations et les régions. Pourtant, le changement est peut-être à l’horizon dans le secteur numéro deux (l’industrie de la technologie), au moment où la génération Z montre plus d’intérêt dans la finance et la comptabilité que dans la technologie. Tandis que les données ont été collectées en grande partie avant la récente rétraction de l’industrie de la technologie, les résultats de cette année démontrent des défis sous-jacents avec le pipeline de candidats de l’enseignement diplômant du management intéressés par la technologie : la génération Z, les femmes et les candidats américains sous-représentés sont moins intéressés par ce domaine.

Les États-Unis restent au premier plan des considérations en tant que destination d’études

La COVID-19 a obligé les gens partout dans le monde à rester chez eux, mais les candidats envisagent de nouveau d’étudier à l’étranger. Les étudiants potentiels qui souhaitent étudier en dehors de leur pays d’origine sont en augmentation, surtout en Europe et en Asie/dans les îles du Pacifique comparé à l’année passée : 84 % des candidats provenant d’Asie cherchent à étudier à l’extérieur de leur pays d’origine contre 79 % l’année passée, et 81 % des candidats provenant d’Europe cherchent à étudier à l’extérieur de leur pays d’origine contre 77 % l’année passée.

Les tendances qui poussent les candidats à étudier dans des endroits comme les États-Unis et l’Europe de l’Ouest n’ont pas changé depuis l’année passée. Après avoir perdu la première place pendant un an en 2020, les États-Unis restent la destination d’étude préférée, portés par la réputation et la préparation de carrière perçue, avec 42 % des personnes interrogées indiquant un intérêt, suivis par l’Europe (37 %) et le Canada (9 %). Tandis que les candidats perçoivent les programmes GME aux États-Unis comme plus coûteux que d’autres en Europe, au Canada ou en Australie, les candidats croient également que plus d’aides financières sont disponibles aux États-Unis.

À propos de l’enquête auprès des étudiants potentiels

Depuis plus de dix ans, l’enquête du GMAC auprès des étudiants potentiels fournit aux écoles de commerce du monde entier des informations essentielles sur les processus de décision des personnes qui envisagent de s’inscrire à un programme d’études supérieures en management (GME). Le rapport de synthèse de cette année étudie les données collectées au cours de l’année civile 2022 auprès de 2 710 personnes interrogées dans 131 pays dans le monde entier. Parmi elles, 40 % sont des femmes, 44 % ont moins de 24 ans, 21 % proviennent de la population américaine sous-représentée et 55 % se sont spécialisées dans un domaine non commercial en tant qu’étudiants de premier cycle. L’enquête continue d’examiner les tendances dans le pipeline des candidats, les préférences de programme et les objectifs de carrière, avec de nouvelles questions ajoutées cette année sur les candidats de la première génération, les motivations pour poursuivre des études supérieures en management et les questions sociales, comme la durabilité et la responsabilité sociale des entreprises. Le rapport examine aussi la longévité des tendances de l’éducation en ligne et hybride et la mobilité des candidats dues à la pandémie de COVID-19.

GlobeNewswire, Notified’s Newswire Distribution Network, Distributed a Record Number of Press Releases in 2022, Resulting in a 16% Increase Over the Last Two Years

Notified Sees Continued Momentum and Provides Best Practices for Press Release Distribution

NEW YORK, April 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Notified, a globally-trusted technology partner for public relations, investor relations, and marketing professionals today announced that GlobeNewswire has seen a 16% increase in press releases distributed by clients over the last two years. This growth is underscored by a recent study conducted in partnership with PRWeek, which found 79% of public relations professionals believe that press releases are a valuable part of the media mix, with 65% reporting that they work on release content ‘extensively.’

As one of the world’s largest newswire distribution networks responsible for securely and reliably delivering mission-critical communications on behalf of more than one-third of the world’s 2,000 largest companies, GlobeNewswire distributes press releases in 150+ countries and 35 languages to drive visibility for key company news and announcements. It consistently receives praise from customers for offering high-quality support, and earned five badges in the G2 Spring Report 2023, for being highly rated by current users.

Last year, in response to the evolving needs of global businesses, GlobeNewswire added three new Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) circuits – covering North America, Europe and the Asia Pacific region. Each circuit includes a comprehensive regional distribution network, plus a carefully curated list of journalists who have a special interest in ESG and corporate social responsibility, as well as trades covering environmental and philanthropic topics.

This year, GlobeNewswire is focused on advancing public relations technology by working hand-in-hand with those that will be using it. Just last month it introduced the first generative AI tool for press release creation offered by a newswire service.

“GlobeNewswire’s continued growth is proof that the press release isn’t going anywhere – in fact, it’s an absolutely critical communications tool in today’s dynamic business environment for companies to tell their stories,” said Jessica Brown, VP of Marketing, Notified. “For organizations of any size, a press release is an indisputable, single source of truth and is essential to corporate communications strategy. Public Relations pros can gain an advantage by understanding best practices for distribution that directly improve visibility, syndication, and earned media results.”

The following tips, outlined in Notified’s latest eBook, “How to Improve Your Media Outreach in 2023” – provide guidelines for communicators to optimize ROI for press releases:

  • Understand SEO: improve search engine optimization by aligning keywords with messaging and target audience in a natural way. Remember that the first line presented in the press release is what will be viewed in Google search results.
  • Think Like a Journalist: be impartial and tactical with writing to create snappy, easy-to-read press releases – avoid jargon and be sure to lead with newsworthy facts, using quotes and data as proof points.
  • Use Multimedia to Improve Results: create a more comprehensive and engaging press release by including embedded (and downloadable) images, videos, audio clips, graphics, and other media. In the alternate text for images, add keywords or related search terms to increase search results. Use compressed images and standard file extension names such as .jpg or .jpeg and descriptive titles.
  • Leverage Your Online Newsroom: in a challenging media environment, the newsroom serves as a resource of up-to-date, easy to consume content and a source of information that journalists and stakeholders trust.

Call for Nominations: 2023 Global Citizen Award®

LONDON, April 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Leading international residence and citizenship advisory firm Henley & Partners, in partnership with the Swiss non-profit humanitarian Andan Foundation, is pleased to announce the call for nominations for the 2023 Global Citizen Award.

Created in 2014, the Global Citizen Award is a tribute that honors remarkable individuals working to advance any one of the global challenges affecting humanity today – challenges that transcend national boundaries and cannot be resolved by any one country acting alone.

The 2023 laureate will be selected by a distinguished, independent committee and honored at the Global Citizen Award ceremony, the concluding event of the annual Henley & Partners Global Citizenship Conference – taking place this year in Dubai from 9 -10 November.

Henley & Partners Chairman and Founder of the Andan Foundation, Dr Christian H. Kaelin, says the awardee’s work needs to demonstrate a positive impact on the lives of vulnerable social groups, particularly with a connection to migration-related issues. “The Global Citizen Award is open worldwide to those working in a field with a direct link to the issues they are looking to affect and excludes political figures, opinion leaders, and celebrities. The committee is looking for remarkable and inspirational individuals who demonstrate vision, courage, and innovation in driving global change, and whose actions and outlook contribute to a more just, peaceful, connected, and tolerant world.”

The selection process is confidential and is based on a majority decision of the Award Committee. The award itself consists of a bespoke sculptural medal designed by leading Italian artist Antonio Nocera, an award certificate signed by the Chairman of the Global Citizen Award Committee, and a monetary prize of USD 20,000, which goes towards supporting the awardee’s humanitarian efforts. In addition, Henley & Partners commits to working closely with the awardee for a period of one year, raising awareness of their work and supporting the selected project through the firm’s network of more than 40 offices worldwide.

Since its inception, the Global Citizen Award has honored many remarkable individuals. The first laureate was German entrepreneur Harald Höppner, who set up the refugee humanitarian aid project Sea Watch. Another recipient was Dr. Imtiaz Sooliman, Founder of the Gift of the Givers Foundation, Africa’s largest disaster relief organization, and Monique Morrow, Co-Founder of The Humanized Internet, a digital identity project that aims to bring hope to the estimated 1.1 billion individuals in the world who cannot prove their legal identity. Diep Vuong, Co-Founder and President of the Pacific Links Foundation, was awarded for her work in Southeast Asia campaigning for the rights of those enslaved by human trafficking, and Prof. Dr. Padraig O’Malley received his Global Citizen Award in recognition of his work on conflict resolution and reconciliation in Northern Ireland, South Africa, and Iraq.

Commenting on the award’s history and significance, Dr Kaelin says global citizenship ideals are a founding principle of Henley & Partners, and through its partnership with the Andan Foundation, the firm is able to provide support to those global citizens displaced by war, conflict and climate change. “All of our Global Citizen Award laureates have inspired us with their willingness to act in confronting a problem that many see as simply too vast to address. The issues that we face today transcend the family, the tribe, the village, and the nation. It’s more critical than ever that we do what we can to support those working on initiatives that directly change the lives of vulnerable people around the world.”

Nominations close on Friday, 30 June 2023. For more information on how to submit your nomination, please contact Tina Savic at tina.savic@andan.org
