SUMMARY:Power Hour: Clash of the Generations: Working Effectively across Four Generations
DESCRIPTION:Today’s workplace is more generationally diverse than ever before—and that diversity is showing up in how people communicate\, collaborate\, approach work\, and define success. With Baby Boomers\, Gen X\, Millennials\, and Gen Z working side by side\, misunderstandings\, frustration\, and missed opportunities are common—not because people don’t care\, but because they’re operating from very different expectations.\n\n\nIn Clash of the Generations\, Val Grubb cuts through stereotypes and generational myths to focus on what actually helps people work better together. This engaging\, highly relatable session equips participants at all levels—not just people leaders—with practical strategies to reduce friction\, increase understanding\, and turn generational differences into a real performance advantage.\n\n\nThis keynote isn’t about fixing people. It’s about learning how to work more effectively together in the new workplace reality.\n\n\nThis session applies directly to day-to-day workplace interactions—team meetings\, cross-functional projects\, feedback conversations\, hybrid work dynamics\, and informal collaboration. Participants gain practical tools to communicate more clearly\, adapt their approach across generations\, and reduce unnecessary tension that slows work down. Whether attendees lead others or simply work alongside colleagues of different ages\, they leave with strategies they can use immediately to improve collaboration\, productivity\, and trust across the organization.\n\n\nKey Takeaways:\n\nParticipants will learn how to:\n\n\nRecognize how different generations often view work\, communication\, feedback\, and success—and why those differences matter\nReduce generational friction by adjusting how they collaborate\, communicate\, and solve problems\nNavigate differing expectations around work ethic\, flexibility\, technology\, and career growth\nStrengthen teamwork across age groups without lowering standards or “watering things down”\nContribute more effectively in multigenerational teams—whether or not they have formal authority\nShift from generational tension to generational advantage in real workplace situations\n\n  \nRegister Now
