520 |a A SIMPLER, SMARTER WAY TO MANAGE GENERATIONAL DIFFERENCES IN THE WORKPLACE Forget complex multi-generation models nobody can use! Discover useful solutions rooted in enduring human psychology Improve communication, productivity, loyalty, career planning, and innovation For all executives, HR pros, talent strategists, and entrepreneurs Millennials. Gen X. Boomers. The "Greatest Generation." How do you get them all working together? It isn't nearly as complicated as the "experts" claim. You just need to understand one simple dynamic that's as old as the human race: there's us, and there's everyone else . Jeff Havens clears away the foolishness so often associated with managing multi-generation workplaces, and gives you a simple, sensible framework for resolving every generational issue you'll ever face. Havens shows why workplaces have always presented "us vs. them" dynamics based on age and experience, and always will. Then, he offers practical solutions for specific intergenerational issues associated with loyalty, work ethic, innovation, change, and career advancement. Ready to get past stereotypes and promote vibrant collaboration across all generations? Then you're ready for Us vs. Them . For 30 years, discussions about generational differences at work have grown increasingly complex and frustrating.

It isn't so complicated-or difficult. In Us vs. Them, Jeff Havens offers a simpler, more intuitive model-and most importantly, actionable solutions. Based on his internationally acclaimed keynote presentation, Us vs. Them will simplify your workplace in ways you didn't think were possible. Think of two generations, not five: Older, more experienced workers and their Younger, less experienced counterparts. Suddenly, you can frame generational issues more sensibly-and find simple solutions to problems that once seemed intractable. Us vs. Them addresses the root psychological causes of generational tension at work: causes based in the hardwired human tendency to see others as "one of us" or as "one of them." This dynamic has existed forever, and it always will. Once you understand it, you can learn to manage it ... and when anothe ...
