Lead & Work Across Generations: Strategies to Connect and Engage a Multi-Generational Workforce

with Ryan Jenkins

52% of workers say they’re least likely to get along with someone from another generation. And 62% of Generation Z (the generation after Millennials) anticipate challenges working with Baby Boomers and Generation X.

Since Millennials and Generation Z became the majority of the labor force, the generational gap has never been wider as each generation has a varying perspective of work, leadership, communication, success, and technology. However, a generationally diverse workforce is crucial for thriving in today’s high-flux and disruption-prone marketplace.

A multigenerational workforce can create stifling challenges or bottomline-boosting advantages. Ryan brings market-leading insight to help your organization and leaders close the generational gap and improve communication, teamwork, retention, and more. 

ATTENDEES GAIN:

• Awareness of the generational gap and why it exists
• Perspectives of each generation's varying views of work, leadership, and communication
• Strategies that are proven and actionable to close the generational gap at work
• Ability to work, communicate, and lead across generations
