Reverse Knowledge Transfer – Bridging the Generational Divide

Knowledge transfer has traditionally been primarily viewed as a one-way process from the older generation to the younger generation, shaped by the valuable knowledge, wisdom and skills of the former. However, the concept of reverse knowledge transfer (where the two roles are reversed) has become increasingly important in today’s fast-evolving world – it is essential for keeping societies adaptive, workplaces innovative and individuals of all ages relevant and empowered. This session will interview a number of early and mid-career members of the Division. As well as seeking advice to their peers, modern insight will be sought (e.g. on technologies, trends or new ways of thinking) that can help to drive improvements in the nuclear criticality safety community, aided through this intergenerational collaboration. Questions will be solicited from the audience as part of the session.
