Shownotes Transcript

Join us each week as experts help us explore issues shaping the world of work! #TChat Radio show is back live on Wednesday, October 16, 2013, at 6:30 pm ET (3:30 pm PT). Immediately after, our entire community will continue the conversation on #TChat Twitter from 7-8 pm ET.   Last week, the TalentCulture community discussed age discrimination in the workplace. This week, we look at age in the workplace from another perspective -- specifically through the lens of Generation X.   Why Gen X? Many say that Boomers and Millennials capture most of the attention -- leaving little on the table for those in the middle. But does evidence really support that perception? Is Gen X suffering in silence somehow? If so, what are the consequences for business, as Boomers retire from the workforce, and organizations require new leaders, experts and innovators?   This week, we're giving Gen X the attention it deserves.   Join #TChat co-creators and hosts Meghan M. Biro and Kevin W. Grossman as we welcome expert guest, Mark Babbitt, CEO of YouTern and COO of SwitchandShift.   This is a topic that affects us all -- regardless of our age or profession. So be sure to tune in and join the conversation!
