Today’s workforce spans multiple generations, with Baby Boomers gradually exiting as Gen Z enters.
- This shift creates a diverse and dynamic workforce, increasing the need for managers and leaders to understand and effectively navigate generational differences.
- MI ATHENA is addressing this challenge in an upcoming, free webinar March 26 at 10 a.m.
Moderated by Jackie Krawczak of Jackie Krawczak, LLC, This engaging panel discussion will explore generational bias and offer strategies for leaders to enhance team understanding, communication and collaboration which is one of our eight ATHENA pillars!
The webinar will feature three accomplished leaders who successfully manage multigenerational teams of different sizes and in different sectors:
- Jennifer Goforth, executive director at General Motors, who leads a team of over 800 members from various generations.
- Allie Walker, president of Truscott Rossman, emphasizes the value of generational diversity, stating, “Having a team with diverse backgrounds and career experiences is a major benefit to any organization. If ignored, businesses might be overlooking their biggest asset.”
- Joline Davis, president of JD Strategic Consultants, LLC, adds, “I enjoy the complexities of a multigenerational team. Communication is key. You must hear what your team is saying and not just listen to respond. Seek clarification instead of assigning blame.”
MI ATHENA is thrilled to partner with Jennifer, Allie and Joline Davis to share their valuable experience and strategies for navigating today’s evolving workforce.
