From Boomers to Zoomers ➡️ Communicating Across Four Generations
|
Hi! We all may be communicators by profession, yet sometimes communicating across generations inside our own organizations or with clients can be just as challenging as the work we do externally. Expectations around feedback, leadership, collaboration, and culture don’t always align, particularly in our fast-moving industry. To explore this together, T2B’s member-led Culture Connect Roundtable—powered by community members passionate about employee engagement and the realities of internal communications—is hosting its Q1 virtual event. Bridging Generational Gaps: Communicating Across Four Generations in Biotech Tuesday, February 3rd | 12-1 p.m. ET 👉 Sign up here. All T2B member-led roundtable programming is exclusive to T2B Pro and Student members. (Basic members are not permitted.) Our speakers This interactive session will be a fireside chat with special guest Erin-Kate Whitcomb, author of Good Work: How Gen X and Millennials are the Dream Team for Collaborating Well and Doing Good, in conversation with Carolyn Noyes from our Culture Connect Roundtable. Together, they’ll look at how generational perspectives shape communication styles, decision-making, and engagement, and what leaders and colleagues can do to bridge those differences productively. We hope you’ll join us for a thoughtful, practical conversation on strengthening culture across generations. Thanks! Lynnea |

While this topic may seem very specific, our speaker prep call reiterated that what’s happening at the FDA and adjacent government agencies right now, of course, goes well beyond this being a regulatory or government affairs issue... because it's also shaping how our decisions as communicators get framed, how risk is managed, and how we advise leadership....
