This is a FREE professional development webinar hosted by the Family Transitions concentration area of the Military Families Learning Network.
People of all ages can work well together, especially when they know and understand the unique strengths each generation has to offer. All too often the differences between generations, rather than areas of opportunity, shape how people work together. This two-part webinar series examines ways to move beyond stereotypes and potential conflict to bridge across generations which can increase creativity, problem-solving, and learning.
Part 2 of this webinar series invites participants to explore ways to harness the strengths of each generation as well as provide tips and tools for communicating and engaging across generations.
1. Recognize the strengths of each generation at different phases of life
2. Identify the potential challenges and intergenerational tensions that can come with major demographic shift
3. Identify strategies that individuals and communities might use to enhance and maintain intergenerational relations over time
If you missed Engaging Across Generations Part I: Unique Mindsets on May 2, you can check out the recording here.
A certificate of completion is offered for this session.
