Workshop | Connecting Across Differences: Intergenerational Supervision

Times are always changing, but the foundations of our relationships remain the same. As new generations enter the workforce, it is important to remove the barriers to collaboration and understanding among the different perspectives on any team.

During this session, participants will understand how to access knowledge and connection across generations through an equitable lens. Through challenging stereotypes and interrupting bias, we can practice strategies for better collaboration in the workplace.
