Understanding Generational Differences in the Workplace
The podcast highlights the distinct characteristics of the four main generational cohorts currently in the workplace: Baby Boomers, Generation X, Millennials, and Generation Z. Baby Boomers, born between 1946 and 1964, remain influential in leadership roles but often exhibit change resistance as they approach retirement. Generation X, spanning 1965 to 1981, introduced the demand for work-life balance, emphasizing flexibility and remote work options. Millennials, born between 1982 and 1997, and the emerging Gen Z, born after 1997, are tech-savvy and prioritize diversity, equity, and inclusion, with both groups striving for flexibility and meaningful work experiences.
