Series 1, Episode 6
How Boomers and Millennials can work better together
The Full Picture | Colt Technology Services
There are so many stereotypes about the different generations – that Millennials spend too much money on avocado toast or that Baby Boomers are out of touch – but what happens when members of different generations are all under one roof? In this episode, we look at getting the best out of a multigenerational workforce and how to harness the power of each generation. Further speaker details below.
