Navigating the Modern Workplace and Bridging the Generational Gap

Wednesday, Nov. 6, 2024, 1:00 pm CT

Generational diversity in the workplace can be a beautiful thing with each generation bringing unique perspectives, ideas, and goals. On the other hand, it can also bring a new set of challenges when it comes to collaboration, management, and navigating different work styles.  

It’s no secret that the younger generations are shaking things up and calling for organizational change. Join us for a candid conversation about the dynamics of working with different generations and how companies must continue to evolve for their employees.  

Millennial Cara Silletto and Gen Zer Alayna Thomas will explore: 

  • Differences between Millennials and Gen Z and what they’re each looking for when it comes to work 
  • Ways to embrace generational differences and leverage the strengths of a multi-generational workforce 
  • Strategies for supporting both Millennials and Gen Z in the workplace while creating an inclusive and collaborative environment
