The launch report, GENERATIONS: Unlocking the productivity potential of a multigenerational workforce, revealed that insufficient cooperation between different age groups can limit productivity, while promoting intergenerational inclusion can unlock greater performance and enhance the employee experience.This latest report, When GENERATIONS Meet: The Productivity Potential of Multigenerational Meetings, marks the first annual publication in this ongoing research initiative. This report offers practical guidance for leaders on how to maximise productivity by leveraging the strengths of multigenerational teams, particularly in meetings.
