Boston, Massachusetts (PRWEB) August 15, 2017 -- HCMC Legal, Inc. (“HCMC”) and ACC Northeast Chapter (Association of Corporate Counsel, “ACC”) partnered to provide an interactive, educational experience for legal professionals in Boston, Massachusetts. The event, titled “Crossed Wires? Bridging the Generational Communications Gaps Within Your In-House Office,” featured guest speaker Dr. Renee Guarriello Heath, who gave an informative lecture about the existence of generational stereotypes and strategies to improve communication between colleagues of different generations in the workplace.
“We enjoyed an evening of professional enrichment and relationship building,” said Joan Davison, CEO of HCMC. “We are thrilled with the high level of interest and engagement, and look forward to building relationships with and serving the legal professionals of Boston. The insight we gained will help us strengthen rapport with colleagues and enhance our work environments.” HCMC, the parent company of Hire Counsel and Mestel & Company, is the national leader in attorney placement, temporary staffing, legal staffing, and eDiscovery services since 1987.

“I am honored to share my knowledge of workplace diversity and generational communication challenges,” said Dr. Renee Guarriello Heath. “The event brings people of different generations together to openly discuss how to improve communication and expectations of each other.” Renee Guarriello Heath (Ph.D., 2005, University of Colorado, Boulder) is a scholar, writer, and lecturer in the area of organizational communication and specializes in collaboration, dialogue, and intergenerational conflict around work-life balance.
