Battle of the Ages Workforce Summit

The Upstate Workforce Board and Spartanburg Chamber of Commerce invite you to "Battle of the Ages"!

Gen Ys-also known as Millennials- are the 54 million adult Americans aged between 18 and 34 in 2015, who now make up one third of the American workforce, the largest generation at work. This segment of the workforce were born in 1978 or later is growing fast and will soon overshadow the GenXers and Baby Boomers.

Managers are increasingly grappling with Millennials generational differences in their work forces, as problems can arise from differing mindsets and communication styles of workers that were born in different eras. The frictions may be aggravated by new technology and work patterns that mix workers of different ages in ever-changing teams. But there is no need to throw in the towel!

This event is geared towards employers and employees who need to know how to take advantage of the differences in values and expectations that this generation brings to the workforce. Hear from other employers who are doing it right, while getting your questions answered by a panel of Millennials and businesses. Your $25.00 advance registration includes a delicious hot breakfast, panel discussion and two breakout sessions.

Learn to recognize and adapt to generational differences, keep employees engaged and get saved by the bell!
