Fusion: Leading Multi-Generational Teams
Event Details
In-Person 4 Hour Session
Fusion: Leading Multi-Generational Teams is a hands on journey to a better understanding of generational differences. Join us for our unique signature program at Shafer!
Using our innovative, and proprietary, Generational Game Board, participants will explore the various social, political, and economic influences that shaped the working attitudes of the Greatest Generation, Baby Boomers, Generational X, Millennials and now Generation Z. Our game creates interesting, and informative, conversation among participants from various generations. This workshop will equip participants to be more effective communicators and leaders through understanding the various generations in the workplace today. Our goal is to create “win-win” solutions that promote inter-generational understanding and result in positive workplaces and communities
Fusion is unlike any generational training you have attended. First, our Generational Game Board, is a unique approach to tackling generational differences. We use the Game Board as a tool for helping participants better understand the worldview of each generation. In addition, the Game Board makes for a highly interactive, and entertaining, way to learn.
This isn’t an another Power Point presentation, or “Sage on the Stage” lecture.
The program will fly by as you engage in stimulating conversation about your childhood, your parents, your grandparents, your children and maybe even your grandchildren. This program isn’t about us, it’s about you. Our Game Board helps you make a personal connection to the material.
