Why do I talk about the multigenerational workplace?
Age diversity is an incredible asset not a problem.
Unparalleled levels of age diversity are now the norm, with four or more generations working side by side. The multigenerational workforce brings both unique opportunities and complex challenges.
This is not a statistical anomaly, it is a critical issue that can disrupt productivity, affect team dynamics, and ultimately impact upon the bottom line.
What I bring
Unique perspective from 25 years in education, over half of which as secondary school headteacher
Implementation-focused: You get actionable strategies that work on Monday morning
Qualified and accredited leadership and team coach working with CEOs and senior leaders
Author of ‘The Snowflake Myth’ - Amazon bestseller debunking generational stereotypes with data and research findings
Why do I focus on Gen Z?
In the end I heard the word ‘snowflake’ once too often to describe my former students. My multi-generational work has a particular lens on Gen Z, the youngest generation in the workplace.
As a former secondary school headteacher I bring a unique perspective on that.
My audiences do not just leave with a better understanding of Gen Z, but they know exactly what they will do to recruit and retain the best.
