Description

We talk a lot about emerging generations—but we don’t talk enough about what we can learn from the ones who’ve led for decades. Katherine sits down with Baby Boomer leaders Meredith and Larry to explore the insight, pattern-recognition, and emotional steadiness that only comes from long experience. They share how they shifted from command-and-control habits to more collaborative, empathetic leadership, and what younger generations often miss about the pressures and realities Boomers grew up navigating.

They also unpack relevance, legacy, and why many Boomers feel “rewired, not retired.” It’s a clear reminder that generational intelligence isn’t just about understanding the new—it’s also about listening to the leaders who’ve already lived through cycles of change.
