Generation Gap Training
Generation Gap Training
The workplace is a hub of diverse perspectives, but generational gaps can complicate this environment. Despite their unique historical and cultural differences, it’s important that both the new generation and the old come together to understand each other in order to efficiently accomplish goals while respecting different values. Bridging these generational divides must be done with consideration for everyone involved so as not to sideline any set of beliefs or opinions; ultimately allowing all employees an equal opportunity at productivity. It’s essential that generations work together to bridge gaps, build collaborations, and grow from each other. Through this session we provide a platform for both older and younger individuals to share perspectives, cultivate understanding between one another, and gain the intelligence they need to reach new heights of growth.
At this interactive session, we’ll work to bridge the generational divide by understanding how prejudices can arise and discovering practical ways of communicating between generations. Here, you will learn about the importance of listening and appreciating different points of view across all ages – no matter where you are in life!
Sample Objectives:
Our trainers develop the Generation Gap program by discussing the need for different generations to be in the workplace and how they benefit each other. We also discuss some of the areas where communication and understanding may fail, and also how values can change our motives and actions.
When speaking with different cultures, or different generations, we need to apply our own communication skills differently to connect. Learning more about how to adapt our communication to help others understand our message will assist with a clearer more effective communication effort.
There are a range of organisational strategies that will help workplaces overcome the generation gap issue. Our trainer discusses this area with participants so they are able to learn from real examples.
Many workplaces will realise the importance of having a diverse workforce. This part of the session assists all to understand how an organisation will look the generation gap when hiring staff.
