Managing Multigenerational Teams

1 Day $0

Currently, there can be up to four generations employed in any workplace. Those in older generations may hold on past the usual age of retirement because of the current economic climate. The differences in their world views and behaviours compared with those of younger generations, eager to climb the corporate ladder or concentrate on work/life balance, may cause issues within teams.

In this course, you will recognise how generational differences affect a team's individual world views and consequently the member’s performance and conduct. You will examine your own beliefs and behaviours in contrast to your own generation and then in turn uncover the differences to the other generations you may lead.

Finally, you will do exercises and create action plans to change challenging behaviours, leverage generational assets, and hire and retain members to create a robust team of complementary intergenerational members.

The participant examines their own generational beliefs and behaviours and then contrasts those to the likely held world views of their team members. The facilitator will then take you through a series of case studies, role plays and exercises in order to create an action plan to change challenging behaviours, leverage generational assets, and hire and retain members to create a robust team of complementary intergenerational members.
