SoDak SHRM Webinar: Navigating Diverse Generations in the Workplace

Navigating Diverse Generations in the Workplace

SoDak SHRM is pleased to invite you to join us for Navigating Diverse Generations in the Workplace presented by Faith Minnich Kjesbo and Nancy Walker. With five generations in the workplace and generation Alpha on the cusp, it is more important than ever to develop and practice strategies to help navigate the different values and perspectives each generation brings with them to work. This session will explore unique generational priorities and preferences – from “mental health days” to “earn and burn PTO” to “company loyalty” – and suggest strategies to equip diverse generations work more effectively together.

All members of South Dakota SHRM chapters are invited to attend this event at NO COST! The training as been approved for 1 SHRM and HRCI recertification credit. Registrants will be emailed the morning of the event with a link to the virtual meeting.
