Amy J. Lynch
Generational Expert and Keynote Speaker
TN, USWhether she's speaking in the US, Asia or Europe, Amy Lynch helps the generations understand each other. She delivers industry-specific takeaways based on her experience working with and managing four generations in the workplace. An author and entrepreneur, she has launched publications and sold them to Fortune 500 companies, guided national marketing campaigns and created curriculum for colleges and schools.
Amy is uniquely qualified to present keynotes. Her graduate work focused on how adults learn. She brings unique been-there-done-that humor to every keynote address. Audiences delight in finding that her story parallels their own, from her Boomer history to her children's Millennial perspective. People may come into one of Amy's generations sessions saying "That generation is impossible," but they leave saying "I can work with that!"
Amy recognized the value of generational intelligence when the field was still in its infancy. For 20 years, she has been delivering cutting-edge research, speaking about generational differences and receiving awards for writing and creating new media in the field. She has spoken to 100s of groups from MTV and Comcast to Boeing, J&J and the staff of the U.S. Senate. Amy has been quoted in national publications, including The Washington Post, USA Today, Boston Globe, Huffington Post, Chicago Tribune and NBC Evening News, among others.
When she's not speaking, writing or researching, you can find Amy watching indie films, training for her next triathlon or, let's be honest, binge watching the new season of House of Cards.

Managing Millennials: ROI on Generation Y
First, the good news. Millennials are fast, collaborative and creative. Perfectly suited for today's fast-paced workplace.
Now the bad news. The Millennial mindset about work is something else altogether. They text instead of talk, disregard traditional working hours and have made job-hopping the norm. In this interactive keynote address, Amy reveals why Gen Y works the way they do and provides do-it-today strategies for recruiting Millennials, retaining them and (gulp!) maybe even...
Innovation from Every Generation
Free all the generations to produce ideas that set your company apart.
Today's business environment demands inventive, on-the-spot solutions from all the generations at work. Your task is to free each ge--from Baby Boomers to Gen Z--to take risks and deliver value.

A message or a tone that hooks one generation can turn off another gen completely. In this interactive session, Amy uses new data and emerging generational trends to reveal fundamental generational differences in communication. She breaks the code for capturing and holding the...
Millennial Members and Volunteers: Energize Your Nonprofit
These days, it's only natural that members and volunteers experience tension across generational lines. No two generations "join" in the same way, volunteer in the same way or donate for the same reasons. Whether we're talking about committee membership, an annual gala or serving on a board, reactions range from "can't wait" to "what a chore." Things we expect to be simple suddenly get complicated!
During this session, audience members identify their own generational patterns and...
Generation Z: GenEdge is Here, and They Don't Blink.

In this keynote address, Amy equips you to engage this pragmatic, private and resilient new gen.
Amy's keynote presentations are never canned--they're customized. From the kick-off call to final interviews and edits, she builds in actionable,...
