Nurse leaders have the opportunity to influence diverse groups of people. This activity is designed to challenge you to think about the opportunities that come with leading and managing a cross-generational workforce.
Members of the younger generation-those 18 to 35 years of age-have said that they want to be led, not managed.
Write a 175-word summary in which you answer the following questions:
How do you think leadership would be different for a person who leads only people between 18 and 35 years of age compared with a person whose followers are mostly over the age of 40?
What strategies would you recommend for a person who becomes the leader of a cross-generational group?
