Generational Fluency
How to understand and translate across generations  
 
With the fast pace of change in American society, each generation has grown up in a different world, resulting in social and cultural differences that shape mindsets and expectations.
 
Without the right understanding these perspectives can collide and cause conflict, even when everyone means well.   
 
In this foundational and lively keynote, national speaker and author Jessica Stollings- Holder presents a snapshot of the generations in the workplace and how to bring them together for greater understanding – and more effective outcomes.   
 
Specific-take-a-ways include:
 

• Why generations are an important cultural competency
• How the unique journey of each generation has impacted its perspectives, expectations and styles and how their strengths can be used to benefit your team
• How to respectfully communicate with, lead, motivate and engage each generation
• How to benefit from generational diversity
