Summary

For the first time, there are five distinct generations sharing the workplace at many American companies - from Baby Boomer to Generation Z. That means an age difference of up to 60 years and a multitude of experiences and attitudes. More crucially, it means there are tremendous challenges - as well as significant opportunity - when trying to foster collaboration between these diverse groups.

In this workshop, workplace culture expert (and proud Gen Xer) Jennifer Romolini examines this extraordinary phenomenon and how it has upended typical management strategies. She guides you through the biases and stereotypes that can cause intergenerational teams to stumble, exploring how to encourage collaboration across diverse working styles. And she shows how fresh thinking, innovative hiring and reporting structures, and effective communication can build teams in which everyone thrives, innovates, and succeeds.

Key takeaways:

  • How age stereotypes can linger even in the most progressive workplaces
  • Why some management styles don’t work in today’s diverse office
  • Why avoiding labels - even in jest - is vital
  • How to recognize the difference between self-advocacy and entitlement
  • How hiring across generations can inject vitality and diversity

Jennifer Romolini, a writer, speaker, consultant, and career expert, is the author of Weird in a World That’s Not: A Career Guide for Misfits, F*ckups, and Failures, the sharp-witted guide to getting the keeping the job you want.
