Hershey Area – All Things Diversity is a free series of programs coordinated by Derry Township and The Hershey Story, The Museum on Chocolate Avenue. The November presentation, Navigating the Generations: Creating an Inclusive Community for All Ages will be presented by Lynette Chappell-Williams, Chief Diversity Officer and Associate Dean for Diversity and Inclusion for Penn State Health Milton S. Hershey Medical Center and College of Medicine.
The U.S. now has six living generations, and each has its own attributes based on their collective experiences. Recognizing the needs and interests of each age group helps our community develop strategies to create a more inclusive environment for all, regardless of age. This session will provide an opportunity to learn more about the general characteristics of each of the age groups and to brainstorm inclusive strategies for different generations.
Lynette Chappell-Williams is a lawyer by training, but has focused on creating more diverse and inclusive workplaces for the past 18 years.
