Leadership Matters

Join Co-host, Jenni Frumer and her guest Derek Hurwitch, the Senior Director of Marketing and Communications of a large non-profit social service agency for a lively and open discussion about their experiences with intergenerational issues in the workplace.

Organizations need to engage in strategic knowledge management – and plan now for the transfer of explicit and tacit knowledge. Furthermore and equally important is the need for organizations to transform and be more welcoming and collaborative, by integrating younger generations into teams.
