In depth information about Gen Xers – typical characteristics of Gen X employees, the top 10 things managers do that drive their younger employees crazy, and seven management principles that have proven effective in recruiting, motivating, and retaining Gen X employees.

 This session includes mini lectures, group participation, an excerpt from a video about Generation X, and a “Name That Tune” segment where participants guess the titles of music from the generations.
