Training Catalog » Generations: Working Together
Instructor: Sue Miller / Joe Ryan / Marge Stepansky
Fee: $115.00
Participants will recognize and gain a greater understanding of the unique needs of different generations in the workforce. A generation is defined as a society-wide peer group. These peer groups possess a commonality of experiences, and these common experiences result in members of the same generation sharing attitudes and behaviors. Differences among generations can effect a rich work environment, and, if not addressed, may create rifts in the workplace. Participants will spend time understanding how communication and motivation can differ among generations. Through class activities, participants will gain skills to work more effectively with members of different generations.
