Our world is constantly evolving, and because of that, our experiences across generations are different. Because our experiences are different, our perspectives are different, and because our perspectives are different, our actions are also different. All of those experiences, perspectives, and actions impact our workplaces, which is why L&D needs to get to know our audiences.
In this episode, I've invited Kat Landa to talk to us about generational differences in the workplace.
Kat is the senior vice president of talent solutions at Dickerson Bakker and brings 22 years of nonprofit fundraising and marketing experience to her work.
