This presentation provides a powerful and practical insight into the tools and techniques for repositioning your business to appeal to all generations.

Based on his highly popular TED talk, employability expert Dr Paul Redmond explores the forces of change transforming the world of work, and the skills, knowledge and attitudes required to avoid career zombification.
