Millennials will be 46% of the workforce by 2020 and the majority by 2026. People over the age of 55 (GenX) will be 24% of the workforce by 2020, as they delay retirement, and some Baby Boomers are retiring earlier than expected. The reality in most workplace situations is that teams can span 4-5 generations. Communication is the number one cause of adverse events in surgical settings, and the place of an employee within the hierarchy is known to cause communication problems. Complicating this is the intersection of gender, race, cultural background, work role and generation. This training will support clinicians to better understand the perspective of different generations in the workplace, and to develop strategies to communicate more effectively within each group. At the end of this training, you should be able to: Describe the various generations that are present in your workplace; Identify differences in those cohorts and their expectations; Tailor interaction with different generational groups; and Work across those generations to harness the strengths of a multigenerational team.
