Generations, Inc: From Boomers to Linksters—Managing the Friction Between Generations at Work
by Meagan Johnson & Larry Johnson

You're probably great at hiring talented people, seasoned veterans and ambitious rookies alike. Everyone on your team is probably energetic, focused, positive, and skilled. But with each generation looking at business from its own unique perspective, they won't always see eye to eye. Professionals of different ages have different definitions of concepts like success, work ethic, priorities, and a job well done. Their point of view comes from their various professional and personal experiences. It's almost never a clear-cut question of whose approach is right or wrong, so how do you manage the confluence of Woodstock Nation and the Facebook Generation-and everything in between?

Written by two generational experts who happen to be father and daughter Generations, Inc.offers the perspectives of people from very different eras, eliciting practical insights on wrestling with generational issues in the workplace. This book provides Baby Boomers and Linksters alike with practical techniques for success. Generations, Inc. makes it easy for any manager, supervisor, or team leader to:

  • Talk openly about conflict
  • Create cross-generational alliances
  • Reconcile disparate values and idiosyncratic working styles
  • Run meetings and direct teams with equal (and equally valued) input from members of all generations
  • And much more!

Members of each generation share special signposts: collective experiences that influence our expectations, actions, and mind-sets. And now that five different generations are working together simultaneously from Traditionals to Generation Y and beyond it's even more important to understand where every one's coming from. Baby Boomers, Gen-Xers, Gen Yers - the differences between these groups go far beyond hair styles and nose rings. Differing values, work-ethics, standards of quality, and attitudes toward customers can cause havoc on your team, or they can be a source of incredible energy and creativity—it's all in how you manage them. Let Generations, Inc. provide you with real-world, practical advice to help create a more cohesive, successful team.
