We find ourselves at a unique juncture in U.S. labor history. For the first time, five generational cohorts are working alongside one another in workplaces across the nation: Silent/Traditionalists, born 1928 to 1945; Baby Boomers, born 1946 to 1964; Generation X, born 1965 to 1980; Millennials, born 1981 to 1996; and Generation Z, born 1996 to 2012. Deepen your learning and strategizing around DEI commitments through the lens of intergenerational dynamics in this interactive workshop.
Learning Outcomes: Participants will be able to...
- Recognize the cultural influences and life experiences of each person's generation in comparison to four others.
- Identify major characteristics of the five generational cohorts.
- Analyze various characteristics of each cohort to increase motivation and professional success.
- Create a more positive and collaborative environment by utilizing generational strengths.
