Demographic change is one of the least understood yet extremely important issues facing organizations today. The working-age population in the U.S. ranges between ages 16 to 64. Each generation's experiences are different causing them to communicate differently. When you bridge that gap and understand these differences, it strengthens how we interact, collaborate, and solve problems.
Shannon Brennan, director of Schuylkill Technology Center will break down each generation, explain what makes each one tick, and share tips on how to communicate with each other more effectively. Walk away with an entirely new view and appreciation for your colleagues and peers.
