Keynote:
Join us for the "Closing the Generational Gap" general session keynote address on Thursday morning, March 12, 2026. For the first time in history, five generations work together, creating both challenges and opportunities in the workplace. Leveraging these differences enhances performance and builds resilient, future-ready organizations. This program explores intergenerational dynamics, offering key insights to foster a culture that embraces these nuances to drive innovation and collaboration in an ever-evolving workplace.
