8:45 am - 9:15 am Fireside Chat: Activate the Full Potential of Your Multigenerational Workforce

Antonius Michielsen - Vice President of Customer Success, Thermondo

We know that customer experience will differ significantly dependent on age and demographic. In fact, we are experts in it. It’s the basics of segmentation and we tailor our products and services accordingly. But how much thought are you putting into your multigenerational workforce?

 

Leading and managing teams during the extraordinary age of the 4-generation workforce presents a unique opportunity for collaboration and innovation in ways never before possible. If we want to prepare for the future of work and win the war on talent, it will require adapting to generational motivations, expectations, communication styles and career aspirations.

 

Join us in this fireside chat as Tony shares his insight on building a workplace fit for the future.
