x Generations: Coexist presented by Leadership Techniques
Join Generation Connect and Leadership Techniques for an Educational Brunch & Learn on Tuesday, November 28th at The Monroe Center. Members: $10 Non-members: $15 (Includes admission & brunch) Abstract: We hear it all the time! Five generations coexisting in the workplace. Supervisors and managers struggling to lead employees older than themselves. Age, as with any other personal trait, should have zero impact on workplace decisions. Must have zero impact. Experience and knowledge contribute to the value we bring to our employers and clients and our age is irrelevant. When we are evaluated based solely on performance and merit, discriminating factors such as age are not part of the equation. Do older workers have different needs and wants than younger workers? Maybe – and that’s why we get to know our employees on an individual basis. What motivates each person? What does each member of your team value? Combining individual empathy with the concept of servant leadership will ultimately lead to a more holistically healthy, happy…and productive team. Learning Objectives: 1. Discuss characteristics of generations in the workplace 2. Examine modern motivational concepts 3. Understand the concept of servant leadership Talent Triangle: Leadership
