A workplace with four or five generations working side by side is not a problem to be solved; it's an opportunity to be leveraged. This CoGen@Work workshop will explore how to tap the different and complementary skills and talents of multigenerational teammates for big rewards. You'll learn how best to understand generation, age and life stage while avoiding stereotypes; how to communicate using a wide variety of styles to suit all ages; how to identify and acknowledge power dynamics; and how to cultivate an age-diverse team of creative problem-solvers.
