By Managing Editor | June 10, 2026 |

The 2026 Leadership Development monthly learning series, made available to the public through a partnership between the RiverBend Growth Association and The Wedge + SIUE, continues on Thursday, June 18 (due to the Juneteenth holiday on Friday).

Presented by Legacy Training and Development from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., this month’s topic is “Working with a Multi-Generational Workforce.”

The series is open to the public, but seating is limited. There is a cost of $10 per session.

Lunch is not included, but participants are welcome to bring their own lunch with them.

Today’s workplace brings together multiple generations, each shaped by different experiences; communication preferences; expectations, and approaches to work. This interactive “Lunch & Learn” will explore how generational differences can influence teamwork, leadership, communication, motivation, and workplace dynamics.

Participants will gain practical strategies for building stronger collaboration across generations, reducing misunderstandings, and leveraging the strengths that each generation brings to the table. The session is designed to increase awareness and help teams create a more connected, productive, and inclusive work environment.
