Description:

New graduates entering the workplace, will work with people from different generations. The key to working effectively with different generations is developing an understanding of generational influences, values, and what motivates people. Learning to appreciate and utilize this diversity in a positive way can enhance our workplace. In this workshop, we explore the characteristics and strengths of each generation and develop strategies for improving communication and multi-generation team performance.
