On Tuesday, June 7, Meagan Johnson, partner with the Johnson Training Group, will be the featured speaker. She will be speaking about generational differences. She’s a bright, funny, delightfully obnoxious generational humorist! What exactly is a generational expert? It’s somebody who understands the differences between Baby Boomers (born 1945-1964), Generation Xers (born 1965-1980), and Gen Years also called Millennials (born 1981-2000) and how they can live, and most importantly, work together successfully without name-calling or bloodshed.
The potential for collision, conflict and confusion between the generations has never been greater and the chasm is growing wider every day we ignore the problem. Come listen to her insights.
