What do they need to be successful at work? How can organizations engage and inspire them to maximize their impact and productivity? These questions are becoming increasingly important as the largest generation in history begins entering the workforce. In the next few years, Gen Y will constitute 38% of all employees.

This program is also available for online training. See details below. Through a series of short dramatizations this unique series explores the rules and techniques that distinguish a Dialogue from other forms of communication, such as debate or negotiation. The series examines how we can surface the often unspoken assumptions, in ourselves and in others, that can stand in the way of effective organizational communication. In so doing we build mutual trust and respect. Each program in the series can stand alone and may be licensed separately. There are volume discounts if you license the entire series or multiple copies of any program. Program Contents: Communicating in a Diverse World. Overview. What is dialogue - contrasting debate and dialogue. Initiating Dialogue - how to do it, where to do it. The skills of Dialogue - Suspension (of judgment, decision making and status); Listening (with empathy, for understanding, showing you care); Discovery (uncovering and sharing hidden assumptions in yourself and others). Includes a dramatization of how Dialogue helps us communicate across job functions, helping improve relations between people at different levels within the organization as well as between different departments or areas of expertise. (25 minutes) Dialogue for Cultural Understanding. We apply the skills of dialogue outlined in Program 1 to challenges faced in culturally diverse work environments. We see a dramatization that demonstrates how dialogue can be used to open communication, uncover hidden assumptions, break down stereotypes and facilitate more productive relationships. (24 minutes) Dialogue between Genders. A dramatized dialogue shows us how the skills we learned in Program 1 can be used to overcome misunderstandings, break down gender stereotypes and improve communications between men and women at work. (21 minutes) Dialogue among Generations. We demonstrate how the skills of dialogue can be used to bridge the personal and professional style differences that exist between employees of different ages. We uncover how divergent personal and world views common to people of different generations can lead to misunderstandings and distrust and how dialogue can help overcome age barriers and build more productive workplace relationships. (24 minutes) Program includes: A comprehensive facilitation guide, reproducible handouts and PowerPoint slides for classroom presentation.

![]() Released - 2006 Guess what? There's a whole new generation of business leaders in the incubator. The Gen X-ers, and Gen-Yers right behind them, demand a new kind of leadership training. Armed with hundreds of hours of research over thee years, Executive Producer Bob Allen, who himself spent twenty five years as a leader in the Disney organization, set out to create a fast-paced, reality television-like, leadership training program for young people that really works! Follow The Leader is a new "rubber meets the road" course featuring three very different business leaders - different ages, different places in their careers, and very different industries. But there's a common thread - they're all successful, and they all possess similar traits and behaviors as business leaders. We follow them around and learn from them on the job. We hear from their people. No gurus. No acronyms. It's about positive role models.
The Follow the Leader DVD is divided into three 20-minute segments which can be viewed in one three-hour workshop or broken into three one-hour workshops titled:
