By understanding the generations in our workplace and what drives each of us, you help create a work environment where we can all focus on providing the best services for our clients (internal and external) and get needs for respect and communication met.
Today’s economic situation may have leveled the playing field in terms of the impact rising unemployment is having across all the generations, however, this does not diminish the fact that each generation brings its own unique way of dealing with the world and its ever changing terrain. This manifesto addresses the uniqueness and similarities of the four generations known as the: Traditionalists, Baby Boomers, Generation X, and Millennials with regards to workplace teams.
The Traditionalists, also called “THE GREATEST GENERATION” and "The Silent Generation" are Healthy, Wealthy and Wise! This cohort built the infrastructure of modern America. Traditionalists grew up in the wake of crippling economic depression and were heavily shaped by war. Today, they are a force to be reckoned with and represent more wealth than any other generation.
Millennials are bending and breaking the traditional rules, while becoming fast, aggressive new competitors. They’ve been described as the “Me Generation” and:
Get bored quickly
Seek meaningful work
Enjoy constant change
Desire professional development
Crave instant gratification
Learn more about Millennials in order to more effectively recruit, retain, manage and motivate them in the workplace.

Gen X is sometimes referred to as the “lost” or "grumpy" generation, this was the first generation of “latchkey” kids, exposed to lots of daycare and divorce. Known as the generation with the lowest voting participation rate of any generation, Gen Xers were quoted by Newsweek as “the generation that dropped out without ever turning on the news or tuning in to the social issues around them.”
Gen X is often characterized by high levels of skepticism, “what’s in it for me” attitudes and a generation with more debt than savings. They've gone from XTREME to XHAUSTED! Learn more about Gen X and what makes them tick.
Gen Y, the latest entrant in the multi-generational workforce, is a unique group. They are young, ambitious and dynamic; but their value systems at work are quite different from the other generations.
This new breed of socially connected professionals with multiple interests can (and probably will!) bring about a radical change in the work cultures of companies.
The big challenge facing organisations is not only building better working relations between the different generations, but also engaging Gen Y effectively to bring about a new and positive work culture that benefits everyone.
This presentation looks at the Gen Y workforce in Singapore and gives a few insights on which areas companies should be looking at for effective engagement with Gen Y.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
