Or review the complete session details page. Panel Discussion: Building a Thriving Four-Generation Workforce As the pandemic-disrupted world of work continues to challenge HR departments and leadership, a new generation is entering the workforce with far-different expectations of employers than previous generations. Gen Z bring an emphasis on diversity and CSR to their job searches; an expectation of recognition, meaning, and coaching to the workplace…and they’re the future of your company. At the same time, Millennials, Gen-X, and Boomers each bring their own unique generational perspectives and priorities to the table, and every worker and company continues to adjust with pandemic-accelerated shifts to the ways we work and how business success is achieved, now and in the future. In this panel discussion, we’re sitting down with pioneering thought-and-people leaders and to discuss the details and differences of the four-generation workforce, the pitfalls of failing to create a workplace where each of them feels seen, and the benefits of fostering generationally diversity.
