Intergenerational Teams & DEI: How To Promote A Positive & Inclusive Work Environment

Description  Overview Discover the truth behind common assumptions about generational differences in the workplace, and learn effective strategies for communication, supervision, and support in cross-generational teams. In today's workforce, five distinct generations work together, leading many to assume each has unique characteristics and needs. However, popular stereotypes about different age groups can be misleading and create unnecessary challenges for organizations. Supervisors who rely on generalized assumptions about older or younger employees risk creating an ineffective and demoralized workplace while ignoring the complexities of each individual. At higher education institutions, addressing potential biases and promoting a productive, respectful work environment that values diversity and inclusion is critical. Furthermore, these factors play a crucial role when they intersect with other social identities such as race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status.Investing in e
