See keynotes with Raven SolomonIn this program, Raven breaks inclusive leadership down into 6 straight-forward characteristics, demonstrating what each looks like in everyday leadership. She covers the inner drivers necessary to actualize these characteristics in a way that is seen and felt by team members.
Audience takeaway:
Many have recently experienced an awakening of sorts, concerning the reality of racial inequality and inequity in America, and have a deep desire to change. Others, on the other hand, have been aware of the problem, but unaware of how to be a part of the solution.
Audience takeaway:
For the first time in history, there are 4, in some cases 5, generations working alongside one another in the workplace. Differences across these generations can create frustration, tension, and breakdowns in communication. These problems can stall productivity and create hostile work environments that lead to disengagement and dissatisfaction. Creating a culture where generational differences are understood, welcomed, and even leveraged can result in higher performance, happier employees, and better places to work.
This unique and highly engaging program will engage every attendee, no matter the age, as they learn about the differences and similarities across the five generations in the workforce, and how each can be leveraged to create a cross-generational synergy that drives results.
Audience takeaways:
It was an inspiring keynote on generational diversity. It opened my eyes to some perspectives. I was Initially skeptical, but as you went through the talk I could relate to a number of items and now I am a believer.
