Buffalo Niagara Chapter - A conversation: Are female Boomers and Millennials more alike than we might think?

Author: Communications Committee/Monday, February 17, 2020/Categories: Chapter Events

Event date: 3/4/2020 5:30 PM - 8:00 PM Export event

For women, from our workplaces to our families, from education to finding a purpose in life, we might be surprised at the similarities across the generations.  We’re talking about the two largest generations living in the U.S. today: the 62 million Millennials (adults ages 20 to 35 in 2016) and the 70 million Baby Boomers (ages 52 to 70). Both groups came of age in times of recession and depression. The two generations share the desire to make the world a better place. Each generation considers themselves “rebels” and dislike stereotypes. Being recognized as a unique individual and not following in the footsteps of someone else is supremely important to both groups. Millennials are more connected to Boomers, because they understand the “rebel” roots of Boomers. And is it possible that Millennials want to collaborate more with Boomers to continue to drive change? 

Join us for a conversation about women’s generational similarities with our panel: Ramona Gallagher, retired labor arbitrator and Janna Willoughby-Lohr, owner of Buffalo-based Papercraft Miracles.

Date: March 4, 2020
Time: 5:30PM - 8:00PM

Location: 20th Century Club , 595 Delaware Ave., Buffalo, NY
