SUPERVISOR ACADEMY:

Generations in the Workplace

ANNA SANTIL

Generations in the Workplace is built on the premise that it’s time to debunk the myths and take full advantage of the unique strengths, talents and experience everyone has to offer – regardless of age. 

The purpose of this workshop is to expose participants to common age-related stereotypes and develop practices that promote collaboration across generational groups, ultimately reducing age-related conflict.

Generations in the Workplace provides leaders at all levels, as well as provides individual contributors, with a research-based framework and best practices required to capitalize on age diversity.

This intensive 4-hour program, Generations in the Workplace focuses on the key practices for eliminating age-based and typical generational stereotypes for leaders from their work teams.

The Great Question and Two Curses: Overcoming Human Nature to Be A Great Leader

J. LENORA BRESLER.

Most of the problems between people – whether in the workplace or in personal interaction – are due to two foibles of the human condition: the Curse of Me and the Curse of Knowledge.

One tempts us to act under assumptions and the other tempts us to remain silent when we should speak. There is also one question that provides instant insight into a person – whether it is oneself or another.

Asking this question provides instant insight on the deepest level, allowing us to establish the most meaningful relationships of our personal and professional lives in moments. In this eye-opening, revolutionary session, you will learn how to make your life, team, and family instantly more satisfying and successful.

This is amazing content you have most likely never considered. Audiences say it tremendously and immediately increases their confidence and competence to navigate all leadership challenges.
