In April 2017 The Young Professionals hosted Evan Abbott, Director of Organizational Development and Learning Department with Mountain State Employer Council. Abbott talked about the different generations in the workplace and the stereotypes that are associated with each of them.

It was incredibly helpful for the attendees to learn how to improve their business by first learning about each other. With at least three generations coexisting in most workplaces, each with different work ethics, perceptions, communication style, and values, that dictate how they perform and handle situations. “Understanding and accepting these differences can help the generations to better work together,” said Abbott.
