Improve Your Negotiation, Influence and Communication Skills
Working with Millennials Course Overview
Millennials (born between 1986 and 2002) will make up nearly half of the workforce by 2020. Clear contrasts exist between the prior generation and Millennials. Millennials are reinventing what it means to be successful in a rapidly changing, technology-driven world.
In the meantime, how do you manage and retain a workforce with different generational cultures, at different stages in their professional and personal lives, and with different expectations for what work should be like?
Dr. Holly Schroth, an award winning lecturer at the Haas School of Business, UC Berkeley, will introduce key motivational and communications differences across the generations. She will then offer a variety of techniques, based on social psychology, for effectively working with Millennials.
Topics Include
- Understanding key motivational and communication differences across generations
- Improving your ability to communicate with and influence millennials
- Knowing how and when to engage in difficulty conversations, give coaching feedback and constructive feedback that motivates
- Creating a growth mindset culture in your organization and teams, the key to learning and improvement
- Learning conflict management and negotiation skills to move from conflict to cooperation
