Bridging the Generational Gap: 

Designing Inclusive Employee Experiences Across Ages

Dr. Unnatti Jain, Unnatti, Inc.  (Fairfax, VA)

Today’s workforce includes up to five generations working side by side, each bringing different expectations, communication styles, and values. A generational gap is a strong chance for purposeful experience design. In this engaging session, Dr. Unnatti Jain equips HR professionals with tools to create personalized and inclusive employee experiences that resonate across age groups. Attendees will learn how to adapt their leadership, communication, and engagement strategies to meet diverse needs and build a more cohesive, connected workplace.

Key learning and skills enhancement: 

  • Identify generational traits and communication preferences that shape how employees experience the workplace.
  • Apply age-inclusive strategies to design a more connected employee journey from onboarding to exit.
  • Enhance team engagement and retention by adapting recognition, feedback, and development initiatives to generational values.
  • Cultivate leadership skills that build trust, reduce friction, and foster psychological safety across multigenerational teams.
