Hey Dude: Managing Age Diversity Today's Workplace

How do you manage the generational diversity alive in your workplace? What impact does it have on your productivity and profits? How do you prepare for the next generation of workers? That’s what this program is all about!
With four generations in the workplace, you are probably juggling more people issues than ever before. If you’re a veteran manager you're faced with misunderstandings between the age groups, disengagement, increased turnover, challenges to authority, failure to meet simple expectations. Questions run through your mind like:

"How do I deal with the young hotshot who wants the salary and influence of a senior manager?"
"What do I do with the kid who shows up one morning with a shaved head and body piercings?"
"How do I handle the twenty-something who only wants to work the hours she wants to work?"
"What do I do about the lack of work ethic among younger generations?"

If you’re a young professional, you may be frustrated by older managers who seem to be stuck in their ways and like to maintain the status quo. You might get irritated with the time it takes to get things done. You wonder why older workers don’t embrace technology the way you do. Questions run through your mind like:

“How do I work efficiently with a boss who has a story for every occasion?”
“Why do they have an expectation that I’ll stay forever? This is only a job.”
“Why does every decision have to be talked to death?”
“How do I best manage those with thirty years experience and twenty years my senior?”

Hey Dude! addresses these questions and many more. It provides you with the insights to understand the thought process and priorities of the different age groups and the ways to motivate and manage each of four generations on a day-to-day basis. The work force is becoming increasingly diverse and managing those of different ages is a critical element in the new leadership skills required.
