In this episode of the EVOLVE Talent and HR Show, Rhona Pierce sits down with executive recruiter Kyle Samuels live from EVOLVE 2026 in Atlanta to discuss an overlooked workforce advantage: Gen X leaders. While organizations focus heavily on attracting Gen Z and Millennials, Kyle argues that companies are missing a powerful opportunity by overlooking the generation currently running teams, bridging cultures, and delivering stability inside organizations.
