Managing Multiple Generations in the Workplace
Managing Multiple Generations in the Workplace
Time: 11:00 - 11:30 | FREE
When: Thursday 5th June
Despite the best efforts of HR, workplace stereotypes abound - Gen Z know how to shirk work; boomers are technophobes and in the post-pandemic workplace, things are becoming increasingly fragmented.
But so you really understand the concerns and pressures faced by this unprecedented five-generational workforce? Shifting priorities demand a different way of mentoring and training to build cohesive workforces.
In today's diverse workplace, managing multiple generations effectively is crucial for fostering innovation and maintaining a harmonious work environment. This webinar will provide employers with the tools and strategies needed to understand and manage the unique characteristics and expectations of different generational cohorts, and ensure your organisation is operating at an optimal level.
Join us to learn how to leverage the strengths of a multigenerational workforce, improve communication, and create a cohesive and productive team.
