The UCCS College of Business and Better Business Bureau of Southern Colorado (BBB) are proud to partner and to offer the Multi-Generational Professional Seminar Series, starting February 2019. The non-degree, 4-track seminar series offers strategies and tools for working and communicating with multiple generations, including attracting and retaining both employees and customers --- with a special focus on Gen Z and the Millennial generation. The intended audience includes community organizations and professionals within any generation.

Your organization can transform by understanding the "why" behind stereotypes, needs and expectations of five generations --- Gen Z, Millennials, Generation Xers, Baby Boomers, and Traditionalists --- and, what you can do strategically to motivate your top talent and attract quality customers.

The seminars are facilitated by exceptional UCCS business faculty members with expertise, experience and research focuses within the needs and expectations of each generation.

10% discounts are available for UCCS and OPED affiliation, or for BBB Accredited Businesses
