You may think you know the generations, but Baby Boomers, Generation Xers and Millennials are carving out new territory as they evolve. And here comes the latest twist—the arrival of Generation Z. Just when you think you’ve bridged the gaps, it’s time to learn what’s happening now as the four generations continue to collide. This session will focus on navigating the multigenerational workplace, and offers strategies to recruit, retain and effectively communicate across four generations.

As the leader of a meetings and events team, I’m being asked to do more than ever with fewer resources. Each year I leave the FICP Annual Conference reignited in my passion and with the tools I need to motivate my team, keep our events relevant and manage internal stakeholders.
I love meeting planning, but the day-to-day demands and stress of the job can make that easy to forget sometimes. At the FICP Annual Conference, I’m inspired by what I see and learn at the event, uplifted by my peers and reminded why I love my job so much. The energy that this event brings reinvigorates my passion for bringing people together and trying new ideas at my own meetings.
I’m still new to the meeting planning world and I’m trying to make a name for myself. The FICP Annual Conference gives me the opportunity to make face-to-face connections with the leaders of this industry and stand out from the crowd. As I look to progress in my career, this event gives me the educational resources and networking opportunities to grow, all in one place!
