Different generations in the Workplace – event RoundTable Topvrouwen and Mentor 4 Talent
Four generations. One room. Countless perspectives.
And a lot of energy and inspiration.
Together with the members of RoundTable Topvrouwen and the participants (mentors and mentees) of our Mentor 4 Talent program, we explored the power and challenges of different generations in the workplace.
We talked about the questions that really matter:
✨ How do generations work together?
✨ What can we learn from one another?
✨ And what does this mean for leadership and for organizations today?
A big thank you to Marieke Sellies-Spekkink for the warm invitation to AbbVie and for giving us a glimpse into her organization.
A special highlight of the session was our intergenerational panel, featuring women leaders from four generations, each bringing their own perspective and experience:
Monique van den Boogaard Lidewij de Haas Winnie Ndjalo, Tasmin Waite moderated by Annette Onrust – op den Kelder
Simone Simone Frankema shared the organizational perspective on different generations in the workplace.
Together, we explored how dialogue across generations enriches leadership, strengthens organizations, and creates space for real connection and growth.
An open conversation across generations invites new perspectives, challenges assumptions, and helps us grow as leaders—together.
A special thanks to Ruby Derksen, Amber Bosma and mentor Esther Zijl shared experiences and insights from their mentoring journeys within the Mentor4Talent program.
