Generations: Bridging the Gap with Type
Many clients, trainers and consultants have asked OKA for advice on how to both manage and facilitate generational differences in the workplace. With four generations spanning more than 50 years in age, generational awareness is a vital element in today's organization development toolkit.
To respond to this need, Rita Murray and Hile Rutledge have coauthored a set of training products for building generational awareness. While none require qualification training, we hope you will consider attending our two-day Generations and Type Training at OKA to experience these dynamics, and learn to put them to work in your own workplaces and with your own clients.
Generations: Bridging the Gap with Type (Workbook)
This workbook presents a four generations model, noting differences in the generations’ values and general approaches to work, communication and technology. As a means to bridge the gaps that erupt between the generations, this workbook presents both type and temperament as self-awareness and communication tools that can provide the translation and bridging needed to turn discord into collaboration. As a stand-alone, self-guided resource, or as a support piece to a larger training design, this workbook requires no qualification on either the generations model or type to be fully accessed, and the abundant use of reflection questions, self-assessments, case studies and action plans makes this a great tool for personal learning or group training. Authors: Rita M. Murray and Hile Rutledge.
