8:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m.

$50.00 for LGASHRM Members

Session Description:
In this workshop, you will learn about the intersection between generational research and trauma-informed care in our workforce. As leaders, we must be aware this is the first time in our nation’s history that five generations are represented in the workforce at the same time. We will explore what this means for us as leaders. In this workshop, you will review how different generations may perceive the world based on the era in which they were born.? Using a framework of a trauma-informed approach to the workforce, we will identify how members of different generations may approach issues, develop relationships with their employers, or exhibit different work styles. We will focus on ways to build leadership and organizational development through gaining cultural competency in generations and practicing cultural humility to learn more about each other’s perspectives.? We will also learn about the impact technology has had through the generations and what ways this impacts communication.
