Demographic Leadership
Demographic change is reshaping leadership challenges. This training shows how to lead intergenerational teams successfully and leverage the strengths of employees of all ages.
As people work longer and increasingly re-enter the workforce later in life, the age structure of organisations is changing significantly. Leaders are increasingly required to manage employees from different generations with diverse needs, values, and working styles. This training provides a solid foundation for actively addressing demographic change and strengthening intergenerational collaboration.
Intergenerational teams bring together a wide range of experiences, competencies, and perspectives. Leveraging this potential effectively is a key leadership task—but it can also be challenging. Generational stereotypes, differing expectations, and contrasting communication and working styles may lead to misunderstandings and hinder knowledge exchange. Differences in familiarity with analogue and digital processes can further increase the risk of conflict.
Leaders must address these challenges proactively by understanding the needs and perspectives of their team members, establishing effective communication structures, and actively supporting the exchange of knowledge and experience. Promoting lifelong learning is another essential element in ensuring that employees of all ages remain engaged, motivated, and capable of contributing sustainably to the organisation.
In this course, leaders gain insight into the key characteristics, competencies, and needs of intergenerational teams. Building on this understanding, they develop sustainable leadership strategies to make effective use of their employees’ diverse strengths. The goal is to enhance intergenerational collaboration, foster knowledge transfer, and lead teams successfully through demographic change.
