About This Discussion:
We gathered around the Unofficial Innovation Council and put a new all-women spin on it to talk about, what we feel is the greatest generation.
Why?
Well, we are part of some amazing innovation, taking on huge leadership roles, but are stuck in this middle ground, where we think like Baby Boomers in many ways, but also have the tech-savviness of Millennials.
In this episode, we discuss what makes Gen X so great, and how we've helped shape the world to what it is today, and why we are often overlooked.
There were lots of laughs, lots of Mike Rowe talk (just listen it will make sense), and lots of discussion around a topic we had to bring to light!
