033 - Play nicely with Boomers, Xers & Millennials - Lee Caraher
Any conversation worth having about Millennials must equally delve into the characteristics and workplace habits of Baby Boomers and Gen Xers. For at least another 15 years these three generations will share the workplace. The survival of many organisations will hinge on their ability to work out how they will play nicely together – to form positive intergenerational teams. Lee Caraher is an expert in managing Millennials – mainly because when she first tired she failed miserably. She realised how significant the challenge was to the future of her business so she dug into it. Deeply. What Lee first discovered was a bunch of bitter Boomers and Xers whinging about Gen Y in an unconstructive way. So she went about doing her own research and creating her own model for intergenerational success. And she joins me on the podcast to share the story what she discovered and tips for making intergenerational teams work in your organisation.
