Generations: From Differences to Common Ground

We all have assumptions about other generations. Let us question them, look at the data, and explore how our differences can make us better.

Generations: From Differences to Common Ground
Gen Z is entitled. Millennials need purpose. Boomers resist change. Or do they?
We all have ideas about how different generations think, work and communicate. But how much of what we believe is actually true — and how much is simply a stereotype?
On 20 October, The Network Luxembourg invites you to an interactive evening exploring generational diversity beyond the usual labels.
We will challenge some common assumptions, look at what the data from Luxembourg actually tells us, and explore a bigger question:
How can different generations complement each other and make us better together?
Expect a mix of research, real-life perspectives, audience interaction and honest conversation — with plenty of room to question what we think we know.

Meet our Speakers
