Navigating The Multi-Generational Workplace
Today’s workplace is more demographically diverse than ever. For the first time, four generations are working together, sharing the same workplaces, working on the same projects, vying for the same career opportunities. As a manager, you must understand how to get the best from your multi-generational teams. This presentation will show you how to do it, and how, by harnessing ‘DQ’ (digital intelligence) and ‘EQ’ (emotional intelligence), you and your team can achieve excellence.
Selling To The Different Generations
Each generation communicates via its own unique generational ‘language’. Understanding how to communicate with each of the four generational cohorts can provide businesses with a major advantage – but how do you market and sell to multi-generational customers if you only “speak” your own generation? Understanding the opportunities presented by generational science offers huge business benefits and will ensure that no customer engagement opportunity is ever wasted. This presentation provides a powerful and practical insight into the tools and techniques for repositioning your business to appeal to all generations.

Zombie Jobs: The Future Of Work
Zombie’ jobs are those at risk of being replaced by artificial intelligence, robotics and virtual reality. But the biggest challenge preventing us preparing young people for the opportunities of the 21st century, is outdated, 20th century thinking about the job market.
