Next Generation Workforce

Just as leaders got used to managing their Millennial workforce, there is a new generation knocking on the doors of employers and training centers – iGen. Born between 1995 and 2012, the first of iGen (Sometimes called Gen Z) graduated from post-secondary education last spring. The techniques that worked to recruit, retain and manage Millennials won’t always work for iGen.

In this session, learn about intergenerational communication, engaging, recruiting and retaining iGen and Millennials.
