# 209 | A Culture Conversation with Jim Sheppard, William Vanderbloemen, and Jenni Catron

**Episode 209 | A Culture Conversation with Jim Sheppard,  
William Vanderbloemen, and Jenni Catron  
**

What happens when you bring three amazing culture thought leaders together for the podcast? A great discussion about the challenges we’re seeing for leaders and teams right now, the dynamics of 5 generations in the workplace, how to think differently about empowering younger leaders, and so much more!

 

This episode of the Lead Culture podcast features all three partners from the Culture Conference: Jenni Catron, Founder & CEO of the [4Sight Group](https://www.get4sight.com/), Jim Sheppard, Principal and CEO at [Generis](https://generis.com/), and William Vanderbloemen, CEO and Founder of [Vanderbloemen](https://www.vanderbloemen.com/)**. **

 

Get ready for a fun conversation about what type of employees are really starting to stand out (hint: emotional intelligence is involved), How the “everyone gets a reward” mentality is impacting employee expectations, what the number one skill is when leading younger generations, AND what the real problem is if those generations are not giving to your church (spoiler: it’s not them, it’s you.)
