Podcast: Play in new window | Download
For the first time in history, four generations are sharing the workplace — and sometimes it feels like they are living in four different worlds. Being able to successfully lead the traditional traditionalists, the still-booming boomers, the extra-independent Gen-X-ers and the tech-or-die Gen-Ys is complicated, but it is critical to the success of your team and your organization. This interactive discussion will bring together a diverse mix of leaders and professionals to share best practices and lessons learned around leading a multigenerational workplace.
Research and real-life experiences will offer attendees practical advice to:
• Lead more effectively and increase productivity;
• Improve communication and cross-generational relationships for yourself and your team;
• Provide more effective mentoring to better develop the next generation of leaders; and
• Leverage your team’s strengths to develop a succession plan
