Leading Across the Generations (101) (Half Day)

Navigating the Gray Areas to Successfully Lead Every Generation
Effective Leadership Mastery Program 101
(Half Day Workshop)

Workshop Description
It is important to be able to lead across the generations in the workplace because the modern workforce is becoming increasingly diverse. There are now five distinct generations in the workplace. They include Matures (born 1925-1945), Boomers (1946-1964), Generation X (1965-1980), Millennials (1981-1996), and Generation Z (1997-2012).

Each generation has its unique set of values, beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors that can influence how they work, communicate, and interact with others. Effective leaders understand and appreciate these differences and can leverage them to create a more inclusive and productive workplace. A “one-size-fits-all” approach to leadership is no longer an option for effective work environments.

Leaders who can lead across the five generations:

  1. Improve employee engagement and retention: Understanding the needs and preferences of different generations can help leaders create a work environment that meets the diverse needs of their employees, which can lead to higher engagement and retention rates.
  2. Foster collaboration and teamwork: Effective leaders who can bridge the generation gap can help create a sense of teamwork and collaboration among employees of different age groups, which can lead to better results and productivity.
  3. Boost innovation: Each generation brings a unique perspective and set of skills to the workplace. Leaders who can harness this diversity can create a culture of innovation and creativity that can help their organizations stay competitive and relevant.

Led by a Certified Speaking Professional, skilled presenter, and popular ANA workshop leader, this workshop is packed with exercises that will expand generational understanding and leadership capability.
