The research includes quantitative data from a survey of 355 participants and qualitative insights from 8 interviews. The analysis reveals engagement as a predictor of the intention to stay and no significant differences in engagement and intention to stay among generations. Key factors driving engagement for these generations include supportive leadership, work-life balance, positive work environment, meaningful work, autonomy and empowerment, professional growth opportunities, transparent communication, and cultural diversity. These findings highlight actionable strategies for organizations to enhance engagement and subsequently increase employees' intention to stay.engEngagementIntention to stayGeneration YGeneration ZEngagement and intention to stay among generations Y and Zmaster thesis203867823
