Bridging the Gap – Seamless Workplace Productivity Across Generations – Part 3

July 13, 2021

This podcast is the last of our three-part series on Bridging the Gap – Seamless workplace productivity across generations.  In today’s session we talk about how COVID impacted our training programs in 2020 and how differences in generations really are beneficial to how we work.  The synergy of the workplace and how employees work together creates the success we hope to achieve.  Ken Blanchard recommends we focus on this thought when working with different generations: “We need to have a mindset that none of us is as smart as all of us. All the brains are not in their office – that 1+1 is a lot greater than 2, and how do you utilize and bring in people that have differences and together create something that's fabulous.”  Eric Kaufman says, “There are some differences between generations. You'd have to be a fool not to see some of the differences, but some of it is not generational – it's just human experience and human dynamics, right?”
