Summary
This training program is the perfect tool to bridge the generational gaps, building awareness that will lead to better hires, happier employees, stronger teams, and healthier organizations.

Description/Agenda

In a recent survey, one-third of workers reported that they had been offended by someone of a different generation at work. At least 33% of those in your office have been insulted, hurt or upset by a remark, a joke, an outfit or an attitude.

For the first time in history, 4 generations — Traditionalists, Baby Boomers, Generation X, and Millennials — have presented new challenges for managers and their employees in the workplace. A definite lack of awareness exists among these four distinct generations. Typically, those of each generation feel they know best, better than those who came earlier, and certainly much better than the new kids on the block. This leads to management challenges and productivity issues.

The four Generations in the Workplace training program is the perfect tool to bridge the generational gaps, building awareness that will lead to better hires, happier employees, stronger teams, and healthier organizations. It helps participants understand what makes each generation unique, and how each adds its own perspective and value to the workplace.
