Decoding American Generations

Course overview

DeCoding American Generations focuses on increasing knowledge of the values, attitudes, behaviors, and characteristics of the six generations that are alive in the United States today. DeCoding American Generations is both an individual journey and an individual process to help people capitalize on generational strengths, utilize the strengths of other generations, and collaborate more effectively with others. The more people understand generational differences, the less resistant or uncomfortable people are when working with people who are different. This course will help participants to develop strategies and apply knowledge and skills to communicate across generational networks to expand their circle of influence and build competency to effectively work across generations. Upon completion of this course, participants are able to: 1) Differentiate between preferred generational communication styles and work standards. 2) Describe different generations' characteristics, behaviors, traits, and values. 3) Increase self-awareness through completing the Generational DeCoder.
