Preparing For Projects In A Post-Pandemic World

As project managers, we tend to treat projects with a strongly ‘mechanistic’ approach: the work can be broken down, executed and controlled as a series of interlocking parts.

This is the technical, engineering-based conceptualisation, derived from the roots of the subject. While acknowledging the many benefits of this view, mindful project management ventures beyond this mechanistic approach, into the unknown and the unexpected.

In this webinar Dr. Elmar Kutsch (LinkedIn profile) 2017 winner of the the Cranfield SOM Teaching and Learning Faculty award for excellence in researching, developing, delivering and publishing impactful case studies; critically reviews the key practices of risk management and scenario planning, and their suitability to take us to and beyond the risk horizon.

Here’s What You’ll Learn:

1. Some of each generation’s strengths and weaknesses
2. How to recruit employees from different generations
3. Helpful guide to communicating across generations
4. How to evaluate performance
5. Building effective work teams comprised of multiple generations

One employee likes the Beatles. Another prefers Bruce Springsteen. And a third is a fan of Britney Spears. They not only have different musical tastes, but different life experiences, communication styles, and motivations.

Today, as people are living longer and retiring later and new generations flood the marketplace, managers face a dilemma: how to manage three generations in one workplace?

The challenge HR leaders face: how to unite Baby Boomers, Generation Xers, and Millennials in a common goal while leveraging the strengths unique to each generation.

In this webinar, you’ll find out the difference between the three generations in terms of cultural influences, work styles, and communication methods.

You’ll learn how each generation views authority, where there might be potential conflicts, and where there may be opportunities for learning through shared knowledge and teamwork.

Join Jennifer Melton (LinkedIn profile) Human Resources Consultant, Paychex; who also discusses how, when managed correctly, a multigenerational workforce can spur innovation and create a rich and vibrant company culture.

In addition, Jennifer will touch on how to manage each generation in today’s virtual workplace, and how each responds to working at home in an unstructured environment that relies heavily on internet communication.

Topics include:

• Generational strengths, weaknesses, and motivations
• Recruiting employees from different generations
• Communicating across generations
• Evaluating performance
• Employee recognition, and what rewards appeal to each generation
• Building effective work teams

If you have a multigenerational workforce, you won’t want to miss this informative discussion. Join us for a Q&A session at the end of the Webinar, where you can submit questions by chat and get insights from our presenter.
