• We need your thoughts on generations in the workplace (we know you have an opinion on this!)

    Generations in the workplace is a dynamic and often misunderstood topic. From comments like 'these millennials expect a trophy just for showing up to work', 'Why is my Gen X boss so cynical and frustrated?' or 'Baby Boomers live to work. Why do they insist on 15 meetings a day?'--stereotypes and generalizations abound when it comes to each generation.
     
    How do you dispel these generalizations and stereotypes? Through careful research and analysis you can begin to re-write the conversation. We have partnered with DFW speaker and researcher, Libby Spears, founder of Bravo cc to start changing the conversation. Libby and her team are dedicated to better understanding how generations impact work and our professional relationships. Her perspective 'generations should be the source of or greatest strength not our biggest headache' is one that we believe in too. 
     
    Starting today, Bravo cc is offering their annual survey to all our members. You can go to Bravo cc Generations in the Workplace Survey to complete the survey. The results of the survey will be shared with our membership in March of 2017. To say thank you for your participation, we will draw a member who completes the survey to win a gift card to Snug and will announce the winner in March.
