Linda Thompson, professional speaker, author and trainer comes to the Mercado to present "Bickering - Backbiting - Clashing - Colliding … Just Another Day at the Office: The New Paradigm for Today's Workforce."

 

The workplace of today has changed dramatically from those of 40 or even 20 years ago. We are faced with four generations – all of whom have their own identities, their values, their own words, their own heroes and villains. How can anything but chaos reign in the office? Through understanding and flexibility, that’s how. Linda Thompson, speaker, author and specialist in life planning and elder care, will help you understand:

• Who are the four generations that comprise today’s workplace
• How can today’s managers create a successful, cohesive, multigenerational workforce
• Why do managers need to change their way of thinking, communicating, and interacting with these diverse groups
