Multigenerational Workforce Training

One of the greatest talent management challenges organizations will continue to face is creating a working environment where each generation represented in today’s workplace can work cohesively and effectively together.

With more generations represented in today’s workforce than ever before, it is essential that businesses educate their teams on how to manage through and capitalize on the unique work styles, skill sets, preferences, and vantage points of each generation.

This highly interactive workshop will provide all participants with the tools and knowledge they need to better understand and respect each generation. Managers will learn best practices for maximizing employee contributions by gaining an understanding of how to adapt their management style to best fit the needs of the individuals on their teams, while staff will learn how to best adjust their communications and work styles to meet the needs of the organization.
