“We Need to Talk” – Digital Changes Everything w/Janneke Ritchie by Top Sixty Over Sixty

May 19, 2021 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am MDT

Free

“We Need to Talk” is a dynamic and open-ended series of hour-long, online, themed conversations across generations. Hosted by Top Sixty Over Sixty

Digital Changes Everything with guest, Janneke Ritchie

Imagine the days before telephones, cars, airplanes, or even disposable diapers. Now think about how it felt to come face to face with technologies that not only improved, but upended daily life. While the benefits are obvious now, there was often a steep learning curve as people hastened to adapt. The same can be said of today’s leading-edge digital technology. New innovations are being developed at lightning speed, yet the path for adaptation and integration has remained much the same.

Digital technologies will continue to transform how we work, live, and age. Explore how different generations approach digital technologies and how intergenerational partnerships create unbeatable outcomes for all.

Join us for our next “We Need to Talk” with Janneke Ritchie. In conversation and in breakout groups, we will:

– Unravel some of the perceived complexity of technology
– Identify new resources
– Help you up your technology game

Free to people of all ages and hosted by Top Sixty Over Sixty, these empowering, monthly Zoom-based sessions will leverage the thinking, knowledge, attitudes, and perspectives of everyone present. The goal is to facilitate new intergenerational connections enabling participants to learn, challenge assumptions, and collaborate.
