For the first time we are part of a workforce made up of five generations, leaving us to collaborate across the broadest generational gap the business world has ever seen. Savvy talent leaders have to be mindful of the differences between generations, and learn how to capitalize on the potential multigenerational teams have to innovate, produce, and build. That means developing leaders — at all levels in the organization.
Different generational situations can inform communication preferences, help to clarify diverse expectations, and identify unique approaches to work. Effective leaders in the modern workplace can navigate these situations, and optimize employee contributions across generations.
The key to unlock this leadership potential is to promote the value of generational diversity within teams. Great things happen when individual members of a team understand, appreciate, and value different perspectives, and the greater ability to solve problems, learn, and mentor that goes along with them.
In this session we will explore:
The misconceptions, unique characteristics and dynamics in each generation
What really matters to new generations, and why that matters
How each generation defines leadership
The value of leadership coaching to support leaders in every generation
How managers can unlock the value in their multigenerational teams
