Better Manage Your Multigenerational Employees

With four generations in the workforce today, tensions are inevitable but problems are avoidable.

These generations think differently, vote differently, buy differently, and dress differently. Work ethic, respect, turnover, dress code, communication tools, fun at work can create real problems for managers and organizations, or they can provide opportunities to bring the generations together.

The bottom line is that what worked in the past doesn’t work now.

Members of one generation will often grumble about another generation using stereotypes that mire a team in needless sticking points. This webcast will show you a practical approach to get the four generations working together.

In this webcast, you’ll learn:

  • The most important stereotype-busting “ghost stories” that explain why each generation thinks the way they do
  • The 12 most frequent generational tensions and what organizations are doing about them
  • A proven 5-step process that gets the generations figuring out for themselves how to work through sticking points and get more done together.

This proven 5-step process gets the generations working through perceived difficulties and getting more done.

We encourage you to register even if you are unable to attend live; you’ll receive replay information following the event.
