This continues to be an uncertain time for employees given troubling economic trends as well as the specter of AI’s impact on what jobs are necessary. This is especially true for young professionals. However there are still some non-negotiables for Gen Zers. We hope you will join us at the December 11 CBC monthly luncheon panel discussion when we explore
