Rethinking Feedback: Building Trust and Accountability Across Generations 

We’re excited to invite you to register for Rethinking Feedback: Building Trust and Accountability Across Generations.

Leading intergenerational teams is complex under any circumstances, and even more so amid ongoing social, political, and economic uncertainty. Employees across generations may bring different expectations about work, authority, communication, psychological safety, and how feedback should be given and received. Although these differences can create friction, they also create opportunities for stronger relationships and more effective leadership.

This webinar will explore how leaders can move beyond stereotypes, navigate intergenerational dynamics, and create a culture where feedback is clear and constructive, and supports individual growth, shared accountability, and connection during times of change. 

Date & Time:
December 8, 2026
12:00 PM – 1:00 PM EST

Location:
Zoom (You will be prompted for a Zoom registration form before being given access to the webinar.)
