In today’s diverse workplace, generational differences can often impact communication, collaboration, and overall team dynamics. Rather than allowing traditional and generational bias to be a barrier, it’s time to harness these differences for greater innovation and effectiveness. Join Generations Expert, Karen McCullough, for a lively session filled with real-world stories, humor, and practical insights for bridging generational gaps. Karen will challenge your thinking and provide actionable strategies to unlock the full potential of a multigenerational workforce.
