management to whom they normally have limited access. Such
forums, moderated by a neutral party, enhance morale by allowing
personnel to share what they have learned on the job in order
to improve the organization and increase productivity.

by offering a new perspective on the benefits of intergenerational
experiences. By taking a humorous approach, the goal of this
interactive session is to show that the young and the old
possess wisdom. By the end of the session participants will
transform frustrations into friendships.

potential outcomes.(Course time: Up to 3 hours)
