Managing Multi-Generations
Learn to manage effectively across generational divides
With four different generations currently employed in today's unique workforce, the resulting work environments can present tremendous challenges—as well as the potential for great rewards. How can our management and leadership techniques bridge multiple generational divides in order to adapt and respond accordingly? In order to effectively handle these critical issues—work ethic, the role of leadership, work/life balance, and more—we need to better understand how the diversity of our backgrounds may have shaped varying workplace expectations.
Our interactive workshop will explore these generational differences and similarities as participants develop and practice helpful techniques for better managing the wide range of ages and personalities that comprise the current labor force.
