Join Cambridge Network for a half-day workshop designed to help managers navigate leading teams made up of multiple generations. From Gen Z to Baby Boomers, each cohort brings their own unique strengths, values, and communication styles into the workplace. Learn how to bridge generational differences to build stronger, more collaborative, and higher-performing teams.

This event will include a keynote speaker and each participant will have the opportunity to choose between two breakout sessions which will run in tandem. You will be asked to confirm which breakout session you would like to attend when you book, and the outlines for both sessions can be found below.
