Generations and Culture – How Prepared are We to Welcome the Next Gen Workforce
Mon, Sep 29, 2025 · 11:15 AM–12:15 PM EDT Room 337+338, Baltimore Convention Center
About this session
Session chaired by Mike McDevitt
Description:
Is there an ongoing tension between different generations in the workforce? Especially between Gen Z, who’s believed to prioritize flexibility, mental health, and efficiency, and older generations who is believed to favour long hours and strict adherence to traditional office protocols. Are there real challenges or this is just another viral trend? Or it’s just the inevitable that Gen Zs will eventually slay the future workplaces. Are they making the old school managers a bit “salty”? Or the Gen Zs are stressed about the 9 to 5. Big “mood”!
Would you like to “flex” your style of managing Gen Zs successfully? Or you were “shook” when you realized that you were “ghosted” by your Gen Z CDM after “slaying” the kick off call. Tell us your story – “no cap”! This session intends to offer a platform to discuss various aspects encompassing different generations in the workforce and explore ways for leaders and managers to emerge as the “GOAT”.
