Managing Generational Differences in Times of Change
Date/Time
9/26/2017
9:30 AM - 12:30 PM Eastern
Event Description
Join us for an interactive workshop exploring the challenges associated with managing library personnel who span several age cohorts.   Participants will be encouraged to articulate their concerns especially as they are informed by past experiences managing a diverse workforce and will learn how to appropriately guide employees through change regardless of age or tenure.  Dr. Snell will present research related to generational differences in work identity and learning styles and suggest methods for incorporating these principles into managerial practice. She will also connect these issues to the broader context by demonstrating that employee behaviors are intertwined with leadership expectations, structural changes to the job, new technology interfaces and changes in patrons.

In this workshop you will learn:
  • Generational differences in work identity and learning styles
  • Best practices for managing these differences
  • Employee behaviors in dealing with change
Presenter:  Andrea F. Snell, Ph.D is an Associate Professor of Psychology and is currently serving as chair of the Industrial/Organizational Psychology Graduate Program. Her research interests include employee survey development, personality testing in the workplace, job search and placement issues associated with older workers. Dr. Snell has an active research program with both Master’s and Ph.D. level students and enjoys collaborative research projects with schools, organizations and municipalities.
