By official count, there are four generations working side-by-side in today’s workplace, and another generation will be coming along soon. Plus, the “boomers” are staying employed longer. Never before has there been such a diversity in age in the workforce nor more diversity in their approaches to how they think about their professional lives. What are the main differences between these four generations? What are the subtle nuances that make each one unique? Are there similarities? You’ll learn some interesting answers to these questions, along with some surprising insights in how companies are making adjustments to accommodate this generational spectrum. If you work in an office of more than one, it’s likely you are working alongside someone from another generation who may not be speaking the same “language” that you are. This session is designed to give you a more in-depth awareness of the complexities of generational leadership that is here to stay.
