Professional Mentoring Bridges the Generation Gap
“The clock is ticking on Baby Boomers retiring. Smart leaders are taking steps now to address the need for top-to bottom succession planning. Taking the time and effort now prepares your organization for the future and will keep productivity high as boomers leave the work force.
“Susan Bender Phelps, CEO of Odyssey Mentoring, has wisely identified this as an important need in the workplace. When I first met Susan, I was struck by the depth of her insight into this looming issue. Odyssey Mentoring is doing breakthrough work in designing and delivering professional mentoring programs.
Part of the focus is on helping to bridge generational and cultural gaps between employees. Anyone who’s ever had a recent college grad with tattoos and body piercings at the same meeting with the Woodstock generation knows that’s a big bridge to cross!” – Brenda Buratti, Founder, Right Now Communications
