Leading Multi-Generational Teams

Leading Multi-Generational Teams is a 5-day course delivered by Mars Training Centre across our international network — London, Dubai, Athens, Jakarta, and Cape Town — designed for senior leaders managing teams that span four working generations.

Most senior leaders today lead teams that include Baby Boomers, Generation X, Millennials, and Generation Z. The differences are not stereotypes — they reflect different formative experiences, different relationships with technology and authority, and different ideas of what a good day at work looks like. Senior leaders who lead across these differences well retain more talent, ship better work, and build stronger pipelines.

Across five days, you will examine the research on generational difference, work through real cases of multi-generational leadership challenges, and develop the practical disciplines that turn generational diversity into team strength.

What You Will Learn

By the end of this programme, you will be able to:

• Understand the formative experiences and working preferences of each generation.
• Move beyond stereotypes to evidence-based generational leadership.
• Adapt your communication style across generations without losing your own voice.
• Design motivation and recognition systems that work across age groups.
• Lead intergenerational conflict productively.
• Build mentoring and reverse-mentoring relationships that actually work.
• Retain talent across the generational spectrum.
• Build a personal multi-generational leadership plan for the 90 days after the course.

How You Will Benefit

You will leave with practical tools to lead across generations and retain talent across the spectrum, and a Mars Certificate of Completion.

Your organisation will gain a senior leader who can build cohesive teams without flattening generational differences.
