Communications CoP: Multiple Generations in the WorkplaceCisco Campus | Building 3, First Floor, The Vault Conference Room This is a NCPMI Communication & Public Speaking CoP- NCPL Toastmasters Club Meeting. Abstract
Companies are now in the situation where they have multiple generations in the workplace. People are living longer and have started working well past retirement. Some people are now opting out of college and entering the workforce straight out of high school. How do you get such a wide range of ages to work together? How do you get them to come into agreement on how to approach projects and job responsibilities? How do you get them to respect all the individuals on the team? Better yet, how do you manage the group especially if they are all older than you? These are the team dynamics that employers, project managers and every company are currently facing. Diversity and Inclusion is no longer about race. It now is also about age. We now have to address the issue of working with multiple generations. Learning Objectives

Leadership CoP: The Mindful InfluenceAbstract For project managers, age or generational diversity may amplify communication challenges, increase barriers on the path to consensus, and require nuanced approaches to effectively engaging employees. For example, you may have found yourself thinking "how can I improve my impact on team members and achieve the desired outcomes in the face of differing values, experience sets, and communication styles?" While it may seem like an insurmountable goal to cultivate an efficient and effective environment for employees across generations, practicing the right form of mindfulness can provide unprecedented clarity into the obstacles and solutions. Please note: Although this session builds on the information in the May 10th workshop, it is not necessary to have attended that event to learn about mindful influence and walk away with practical understanding and actions |
