There have always been discussions about how generations differ. Generally, those discussions are somewhat negative. For example, newer generations are criticized for “having it too easy” or “not having the same work ethic” while older generations are criticized for being unwilling to change or not being open to new ideas.
Often these criticisms are faulty or apply only to a small part of generations. However, there are probably some significant differences between generations that have workforce implications. This session will examine what some of those differences might be and how those differences might impact how we lead and manage in today’s workplace.
