Sommario/riassunto |
|
"Case studies and strategies for more effective multi-generational management Clash of the Generations explores this new and increasingly common workplace phenomenon, and provides strategies to help managers navigate this ever more complex maze. Traditionally, older workers would retire and make room for the next generation; instead, Baby Boomers are now prolonging their time in the workplace, yet the successive generations are still coming in. Senior leaders are now left to manage a blended workplace comprised of up to four generations--each with their own ideas of work ethic, work/life balance, long-term career goals, and much more. Management is challenging at the best of times, but the new prevalence of generation gaps--sometimes even layered--add an entirely new dimension to an already complex responsibility. This book presents case studies and interviews with representatives of companies with age-diverse workforces, detailing innovative strategies for smoothing out the bumps and helping everyone work together. Managers have long wished that their positions came with an instruction manual, and this book delivers with a host of effective inter-generational management strategies illustrated by real-world companies. Manage the multi-generation workplace more effectively Navigate the generational culture clash Adopt proven strategies for helping everyone get along Promote a more positive culture amidst clashing expectations Every generation in the workplace has value, each has their own strengths, their own weaknesses, and their own unique talents. Each is indispensable, and when they come together as a synergistic force, they can be unstoppable. Effective management means bringing out the best in your workforce, and the strategies presented in Clash of the Generations help you streamline your varied workforce into a team |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Ce livre est né de deux rencontres : la première entre les hommes et la nature, quelque part dans les brumes d'un Moyen Âge éminemment religieux ; la seconde, près d'un millénaire plus tard, entre la communauté scientifique et un site fascinant tant par ses ruines majestueuses et son histoire complexe que par les illustres personnages qui l'on choisi comme résidence ou source d'inspiration. L'île de Maillezais a été battue durant sept siècles par les vagues successives de la grande Histoire. En marge du monde des hommes, couvert de forêts, peuplé d'oiseaux et d'animaux sauvages, ceint de marais, le site originel fut pour ses premiers occupants une sorte de « désert fertile », propre à satisfaire leurs ambitions et leurs besoins. L'abbaye en particulier, fondation comtale de la fin du Xe siècle, s'illustre jusqu'au XVIIe siècle par sa vie religieuse et culturelle, mais également par sa richesse et sa puissance temporelle, sources de nombreuses convoitises. À la fois lieu de pouvoir et lieu de mémoire, Maillezais apparaît en outre comme un espace d'affirmation identitaire. Cimetière familial pour les comtes de Poitiers, centre résidentiel pour les évêques, villégiature pour Agrippa d'Aubigné, les maîtres du lieu puisèrent dans l'insularité pour bâtir et exprimer leur puissance et leur singularité. À chaque époque d'écriture de textes et d'érection d'édifices correspond une construction idéologique. Aujourd'hui encore, le chercheur, le riverain passionné ou le simple visiteur, traduit par son regard personnel, subjectif et affectif, l'attraction intemporelle qu'exerce sur chacun le site de Maillezais. Qu'il trouve dans cet ouvrage quelques nouvelles clefs pour en percer les secrets. |
