The post-generational work environment individualizes the workplace by focusing on the unique preferences and abilities of each employee rather than generalizing needs based on age or generation.

A benefit of the post-generational workplace is that teams are formed based on perennial skills, expertise, and project requirements versus stereotyping the individual by the decade in which they were born.  This encourages collaboration and knowledge shared across traditional generational boundaries.

This webinar gives leadership the skills to emphasize emotional intelligence, empathy, and effective communication with opposite personalities from different generations. 

Learning Objectives

After this course, you will see your employees and your culture in an entirely new light. Together we will discuss:  

  • The characteristics of perennials
  • How to leverage the diverse perspectives and experiences of perennial employees?
  • Communication strategies to facilitate seamless interactions across different work styles and preferences
  • Why recognizing perennials leads to better talent utilization by deploying projects compatible with skills and strengths?
  • Factors of the post-generational, perennial workplace that reduces generational conflicts and promotes a more cohesive and collaborative work environment

In this hour we spend together, you will learn to see employees through the lens of personal identity including: 

  • Skills and strengths not on a resume
  • Left Brain or Right Brain proclivities
  • Vertical versus Horizontal Logic
  • Vertical versus Horizontal Creativity
  • Personality identification as Dominant, Influential, Steady or Conscientious
  • Why personality traits are perennial?

You will learn

  • What team confluence means and how it can change your culture
  • How to help generations find common ground?
  • Strategies to increase communication between generations
  • Three skills – P.T.A. – that every employee needs to understand and use daily

Most organizations want to be innovative and gain relevancy in the marketplace. A perennial workplace enhances innovation. In this portion of the webinar, you will get tips for:

  • Understanding predictable change and the S-curve
  • Engaging perennials in change initiatives
  • Dissolving the emotions of change
  • Extending psychological safety to employees

This is a “must attend” and “don’t miss” webinar for all leaders and managers who want to sharpen their insights and intuition as they develop employees who are agile and responsive the market dynamics.

Who Should Attend

All leaders and managers who want to improve the culture in their organization and the increase team results.

Why Should You Attend

  • Reason #1: The workplace of the 20th century was based on a sequential work mindset. A sequential mindset means individuals enter the workplace, build a career, and retire, often taking with them enormous amounts of knowledge and expertise. This model leaves the organization information poor. This is also referred to as a generational workplace where many generations work together, often  unsuccessfully.
  • Reason #2: We are entering a post-generational workplace where a new workforce known merely as “perennials” has emerged. This environment shifts the focus away from categorizing employees by their generational cohorts and instead emphasizes individual strengths, preferences, and skills. This approach minimizes stereotypes and assumptions often associated with generational labels. It promotes a more inclusive and productive workplace.
  • Reason #3: With this knowledge, you can create a culture that merges the experience of older workers with the speed of younger workers. A smart choice for innovation and profitability.

Topic Background

The Perennial Workplace is “An every-blooming group of people of all ages, stripes, and types who transcend stereotypes and make connections with each other and the world around them. They are not defined by their generation.”

This quote by BlogHer17, Gina Pell, explains the goal for organizations that want five generations to work harmoniously together, innovating and completing projects on time.
