This workshop will be presented by Sue Anderson, MS, SPHR. Sue Anderson is the Staff Employment and Development Manager for the University of California, Riverside.  Sue joined UC Riverside in 2001.  She has nearly 30 years of experience in the field of Human Resources working as a generalist in both professional and management positions.

Course Abstract: With more generations in the workplace than ever before, the success of an organization will depend on employees of all ages working effectively and respectfully as a team.  In this workshop based on foundational material provided by one of the project teams of the Making Excellence Inclusive: Diversity Certificate Program, participants will:  increase awareness of the characteristics and needs of the four generations in UCR's workforce; understand the "social moments" for each generation and how the generation was shaped by these events; gain understanding of personal views about the generations; and enhance team effectiveness by exploring ways to leverage the strengths of each generation.  Through lecture, hands-on activities, and case studies, participants will capture practical ideas and information that can be applied immediately in their workplaces.
