Inspiring Your Multigenerational Workforce

 "Every generation is unique with their distinctive values, priorities and beliefs. When a new generation enters the workforce, it affects the existing workplace symmetry as management, human resource personnel and older employees have to learn new management strategies and approaches so as to better understand, engage and inspire them. Oftentimes, this results in tension and an us-versus-them mentality. Apart from Generation Y (Gen Y), in the spotlight in today's workplace is the Generation Z (Gen Z) who are joining the corporate world in large numbers. Understanding the challenges that managers and leaders face within their organisations when they deal with younger generations will lead to a better productive and engaging workforce which is critical towards the development of high-performance organisation".

Inspiring Your Future Workforce: How to lead and engage Gen Y and Z effectively

Introduction

For the first time in modern history, workplace demographics now span four generations, meaning that 20-year-old new hires can find themselves working side-by-side with colleagues who are older than they are by 50 years (or even more).

Leaders today are facing a critical challenge: how to adapt their leadership practices and style to get the best out of next generation of employees. They can't do so alone. Organisations have a responsibility to help managers understand how workers' expectations have changed and how they can adapt their leadership style to these new conditions. More importantly, organisations need to provide leaders with the tools and processes which allow leaders to reward and recognise, train and develop, empower generation Y employees more effectively.

Flexibility is vital to managing Gen Y and Z, especially if your organisation comprises a multigenerational workforce. By understanding Gen Y and Z and adapting your management styles accordingly, you can effectively harness the potential of future generations of employees while maintaining the loyalty of other staff, thus effectively attracting and retaining employees, building teams, dealing with change and increasing employee engagement.

Leading and Inspiring Your Multigenerational Team in a VUCA World

In view of the disruptive nature of the VUCA business environment and the impact on the workplace, leaders at all levels would need to adopt new practices which will allow them to better lead and engage their teams.

There are several benefits to be gained by the whole organisation when a multigenerational team works well together. A positive, inclusive work culture can lead to business success by enhancing recruitment, retention and profitability.

• The team can attract and retain talented people of all ages.

• Decisions are stronger because they're broad-based with multiple perspectives.
• The team is more innovative and creative.
• The team can meet the needs of diverse markets and can relate more effectively.
