101- Can Generations of Workers Get Along?

101- Can Generations of Workers Get Along?

Have you ever wondered how different generations can work together in a company? Well, I review the book called The Modern Elder by Chip Conley and he had some great insights on this topic. He talks about the importance of respecting each other’s strengths and weaknesses and learning from one another. I talk about how we can all contribute to a company, regardless of our age or experience. Conley suggests that being a modern elder means being both a mentor and an intern, and it’s up to us to figure out which stage we’re in and how we can bring our unique skills to the table. What stage are you in at your company, and what do you bring to the job?
