The distinctions among varying age groups are indeed more than just a label. What are the top two differences between Boomers, Gen Xers, Millennials, and Gen Z? Why do business leaders need to manage these generations differently?
Each generation is motivated differently. Their expectations of themselves, your company, as well as you as their manager, may vary greatly. Your job is to make sure you address the needs of all four generations to move the company toward its own goals.
In this particular podcast, Fred Coon, SC&C CEO, interviews Senior Operations / Business Strategy Executive and multi-generational expert, Kathy Gamboa, on how business leaders can increase their understanding of generational differences and better approach employees of all ages.
