About This Course

Do you manage team members who belong to younger generations? Are you looking for what you can do to build a more effective relationship? Are you struggling to understand what motivates them? Are you searching for ways to drive cooperation, productivity, or profitability? Millennials and Gen Z represent a large portion of the workforce, and by 2025 Millennials are expected to make up the majority of the global workforce. Yet, there are still so many stigmas and preconceived notions associated with the younger generations that turn into barriers to a good working relationship. Crystal Kadakia, a two-time TEDx speaker, international keynoter, and best-selling author, is determined to break through the common stereotypes and change the conversation towards a more productive and inclusive work environment.

In this course you’ll learn that it’s not just about Millennials or Gen Z adapting to you and your style, it’s about adapting your daily management practices to better match the work environment in a digital age. Rethink traditional ways of working and break through frustrations, yours and theirs, by taking on a more collaborative “third way” approach. It’s neither your way or their way, but somewhere in between. Earn 6 PDUs as you take a closer look at each generation, develop an inclusion-ready mindset using a Stereotypes-to-Strengths framework, and break through the 5 most common stereotypes of Millennials. This hands on course includes practical exercises and reflection activities to help you level up your management skills and become an engaging, effective leader of all modern talent.

PDUs can be applied towards the following certifications: PMP, PgMP, PMI-ACP, PMI-BA, PMI-RMP, and PMI-SP. This course also qualifies for 6 HR recertification credits approved through HRCI and SHRM.

This course is available in the PDU Passport, our all-access pass to every InSite PDU course.

I used Velociteach course material in preparing for my PMP exam years ago, and Velociteach has been my go-to for online courses thereafter.

Testimonial Headshot image of Claire Struthers
Velociteach is doing a great job of helping me earn my PDUs through the courses offered to me. I am most enthusiastic about project management and the Agile methodology that is garnering a lot of attention. Kudos to Velociteach and Neal Whitten to take this on and provide more information to PMI PMP's such as myself. It helps me to take the course on my own pace and when it serves me best to get on the computer to learn it.
