George Orwell once said wisely, “Every generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one that went before it, and wiser than the one that comes after it.”

The concept of age diversity in the workplace has been around for a long time, but only 8% of organizations include it in their DEI efforts.

Yet nearly 65% of workers say they have experienced aged-based discrimination, and generational blaming and shaming costs organizations dearly. In fact, in 2015 alone, between 60 and 70 million dollars were spent on generational consulting.

1. Do pesky stereotypes get in the way in your organization?
2. Do employees work in and lead multigenerational teams productively?

This session will explore new ways of thinking that can change not only our perspectives, and but the way we communicate from day to day.

Never has collaboration within and among diverse teams been more important, and never has Learning and Development faced such challenges and opportunities.

Learning Take-aways: 

1. Understanding how the four main generational narratives in the workplace came about.
2. Exploring common values across generations and how they can help.
3. Strategizing to overcome stereotypes by generating practical and productive communication practices.

Communication, in many ways, is the key to leadership, and the leadership that got you here won’t get you there.

Right now, there is a great opportunity to transform conversations and how people experience work for the better, especially as we continue to lean into hybrid work models. In fact, a recent CMI survey found about 60 percent of managers in the U.K. did not feel they had adequate training in how to manage remote workers.

During this webinar, we’ll explore Kurt Lewin‘s Three Stage Model of Organizational Change: Unfreeze (prepare a group to change), Change (transition to a new way of working), and Freeze (sustainably embed the new ways of working).

Many of us will undoubtedly identify ourselves as being in the “Change” stage. We must close the “hybrid knowing-doing” gap before we “Refreeze” to create more meaningful leadership practices. In this webinar, we will explore how to do just that!

Alan Lyons (LinkedIn profile) will share fresh insights and trends on this topic and focus on how to provide a clear purpose for your hybrid policy, proximity bias, emotional intelligence, co-creation and acknowledging the impact on accidental managers parachuted into a sudden hybrid situation.

Key take-aways:

• Learn what effective hybrid leadership looks like
• Close the hybrid knowing-doing gap
• Understanding the importance of co-creation for success
• A plethora of behavioural insights for getting hybrid right
