The Dauphin and District Chamber of Commerce hosted their lunch series at the Aspen Lodge yesterday.
Laurie Cox had a presentation about how the four generations interact in the workplace.
The bulk of her presentation was how to attract and lead the millennial worker.
The millennials are the largest generation and by 2025 will be 75% of the workforce.
With more millennials coming into the workforce Cox suggests an inspiring and visionary leadership over millennials.
There are a lot of differences between the four generations, leadership-wise.
Baby boomers believe in participant management, gen x looks at a more top-down hierarchal, and millennials like a peer to peer relationship with their leaders.
There are similarities between the generations, they all want to do well in their role, they want to be invested in their company and find value in their company.
