Bridging the Generational Gap

March 4, 2026

6:00 – 7:00 pm

In today’s legal landscape, the impossible math of modern life has forced a shift in how women lawyers engage with professional organizations and the profession itself. In addition, navigating a workforce that spans four generations can lead to misunderstanding and miscommunication, exacerbating burnout and disengagement. This session, Bridging the Generational Gap, trades general observations for hands on strategies designed to solve the communication and engagement challenges facing today’s women lawyers. We’ll move past the old models of success and offer a fresh approach that meets the urgent needs of women across four generations.

Join Kelli Dunaway and Mollie Farrell Khazaeli for a dynamic program designed to turn a crisis of disengagement into a force for collective change. Whether you are looking to better understand your colleagues or revitalize your bar association’s value, you will leave with the tools to reach across generations and build a more collaborative, relevant, and powerful professional community.

NYWBA Cycle for Survival 2026
This will be NYWBA’s FIFTH year participating in Sloan Kettering’s Cycle for Survival. Cycle for Survival is an annual fundraiser for which Sloan Kettering and Equinox partner together to raise money for rare cancer research.
We ride in memory of NYWBA Past President Amanda Norejko who we sadly lost to cancer in August 2024.
Cycle for Survival is a four-hour indoor cycle event during which participants take turns cycling on spin bikes. You can ride for as short or as long a time as you want. There will be a DJ playing music and the Equinox spin instructors take turns riding on the stage. It is a really fun, inspirational and exciting event and we urge each of you to join the NYWBA team.
If you are unable to ride or would rather not ride that is completely fine. Feel free to come to cheer on our team or visit the NYWBA team website and make a donation.
We are really looking forward to the event this year and hope each of you will join us in the fight to cure rare cancers.
This ride will be held at Equinox Bryant Park (129 W 41st St, New York, NY 10036)
