Multiple Generations and the Workplace with Jason Swain (July 18, 2012)

Wed, 18 Jul 2012 16:00:00 GMT

WHEN GENERATIONS COLLIDE:

How to Solve the Generational Puzzle at Work

Generational collisions are among the key management issues being faced by leaders of today’s organizations. Because people are living and working longer, this is the first time in history that four generations are likely to find themselves looking at one another across the same conference table.

Generational differences have the potential to enhance rather than harm organizations. Companies that learn to take advantage of the generation gaps – not simply manage or endure them – are likely to become “employers of choice” in the future, capable of attracting and retaining a skilled workforce.

Understand and learn to communicate more effectively with all four generations in the workplace today – Traditionalist, Baby Boomer, Generation X, and Millennials. Recognize the stereotypes that prevent us from understanding a different generation. Identify “clashpoints” that cause dissatisfaction and attrition.

Learning Objectives:

Discover how generational differences impact work habits, communication styles and motivation
Understand and appreciate the strengths of each generation

Minimize conflict and strengthen collaboration among the generations

Learn how to harness generational differences to improve teamwork, innovation and results.
