Event Info: 

  The generation gap has become the generation chasm, with four generations coexisting in today's workforce - Seniors, Boomers, Generation X'ers, and Millennials. Each generation has different work styles, values and expectations.

HR and line managers must understand each group in order to recruit, retain, build intergenerational teams, and communicate effectively across the generations. Team members must understand how to work effectively with their colleagues to achieve personal and organizational goals.

Get an overview of the different generational characteristics and some concrete strategies you can apply immediately, such as:

Adapting HR systems: onboarding, benefits, rewards, etc. to appeal across the generations

Identifying core strengths of different generational team members

Leveraging the diversity of unique strengths despite work style differences
