Each quarter, the Engage Mentoring Executive Talent Roundtables meet and conduct a focused discussion on a topic related to attracting, retaining, and developing talent.

At our most recent Engage Mentoring Executive Talent Roundtable meeting, the topic was building a thriving multi-generational workforce. To prepare for the discussion, I sat down with Lindsay Boccardo, a millennial expert and coach who specializes in helping companies adapt to attract and retain this growing population by creating an environment that allows them to thrive.

We discussed the importance of corporate social responsibility, mentoring and access to relationships, tuition reimbursement plans, and a change in traditional career pathing mentalities. The resulting discussions stemming from this interview were lively and robust. This generation is a game-changer for companies and the most progressive ones are winning in this tight talent market.

Listen to the full interview by [following this link](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jTfw3NaCPA&feature=youtu.be)[.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jTfw3NaCPA&feature=youtu.be) Be sure to weigh in on this topic by sharing your thoughts and what strategies and tactics your company uses to attract and retain the next generation of talent.
