The Workplace Has Changed. Have We?

Thursday, October 22, 2026
4:30 PM-6:30 PM PT

Generations, expectations & the new rules of work.

Today’s workplace brings together employees at different ages, career stages, and levels of experience—but how much of what we believe about “generational differences” is actually supported by research?

This discussion will move beyond common stereotypes about different generations and career stages to explore what the evidence really tells us about leading a multigenerational workforce. We’ll look at practical ways organizations can strengthen engagement, communication, mentorship, knowledge transfer, and employee development while recognizing employees as individuals rather than defining them by generation.

Attendees will leave with actionable ideas for creating workplaces where employees at every career stage can contribute, grow, and learn from one another.
