Chloe has worked with young people her entire career and over the last five years has interviewed, influenced and worked with 10,000+ members of Generation Z – a generation she has been influential in defining and explaining. The breadth and depth of her work has become invaluable to companies, brands and governments around the world, and she has spent the last two years (and counting) visiting 40+ countries sharing her work, extensive research and insights into the future.
She has become a sought-out speaker on a wide range of issues, including (but not limited to) teenagers, education, young people in the work place, sex, social media, pop culture in the 21st century, brands, brand relationships, youth culture, beauty and self-esteem. She is a canny and noted prognosticator, recognising and identifying trends early, and helping many stay ahead of the game.
She works with international clients across a range of industries. Clients/projects include Porsche, The European Central Bank, Pepsi, MCA Insight, Virgin Media, Oxford University Press, PZ Cussons, Boots, Sainsbury’s, Fullers, Unilever, Sports Scotland, Sports NI, EACD, Quadriga, Capita, Google, Sainsbury’s Trust, Heineken, Lynx, Johnson&Johnson, Red Bull, Lynx, Barclay’s, UN, UNICEF and many more – to great acclaim and with seriously successful results.
She speaks around the world and has been on a year-long (and going) international speaking tour in countries including Germany, USA, France, Ukraine, Russia, Holland, Italy, Finland, Austria, Croatia, Turkey, Hungary, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and of course, the UK. You can book her for speaking events via her contact page or through her speaking agent at LAW.
In 2015, Generation Z: Their Voices, Their Lives was published via Penguin, Random House and she is now working on a 2020 update, and two other book projects, which have been optioned by major broadcasters.
She writes for lots of media and political publications and her writing has been published in The Times, Guardian, HuffPost, TES (former columnist during her teaching years), The Independent, Marie-Claire, Daily Mail, The Fabian Society and various international publications. She is a regular on UK TV and radio including Sky News, BBC News, Radio 4 and Newsnight.
