In today's business environment, four generations work side-by-side, each with different attitudes and expectations about their jobs, careers, and contributions to their employers. Businesses need to create and deliver a value proposition to bring out the best from workers in Generation Y ("Millennials") and Z, especially since they are becoming increasingly dependent on younger talent while continuously losing older talent to retirement. Now and in coming years, success will shine upon those employers that are savvy enough to leverage the talents and skills of Generations Y and Z. This course is designed to arm you with valuable information to know about today's rapidly evolving workforce so that you can position your business for greater productivity.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
Business leaders, managers, and human resources find themselves with a much different profile of their company workforce than they've ever had before. The Millennials or Generation X have been a distinct part of the workforce for several years now, but they still intrigue business leaders with their seemingly unique values and professional desires. Coupled with this is the younger Generation Z making its way into the workforce, bringing its own set of specific characteristics. Not surprisingly, senior business leaders are scratching their heads trying to understand and leverage the best aspects of their multi-generational, multi-talented workforce. This course will walk you through an enlightening discussion about the myths surrounding Millennials and Generation Z with the aim of providing a fresh point of view about their motivations and values. You'll learn how they bring new skills and perspectives to the work environment. You'll also understand how you as business leaders can motivate, engage, and better integrate their talents into the work environment and improve your company's productivity.
