Hey everyone, I came across a post from George Stern that really challenged how we think about generational differences at work. We’ve all heard the lazy stereotypes: “Gen Z is entitled”, “Millennials are needy”, “Gen X is detached”, “Boomers hate tech”. But when you look closer, those clichés fall apart. What’s really happening is that each generation entered the workforce in a different world, with different expectations, values, and definitions of success. And that matters, especially if you’re trying to lead. Gen Z cares deeply about impact and flexibility. Millennials thrive when there’s meaning and collaboration. Gen X wants autonomy and results. Boomers bring wisdom and long-term perspective. None of that is “wrong”, it’s just different. Trying to lead every generation the same way is like trying to coach every athlete the same way. It misses what actually motivates them. We’re not managing labels. We’re working with people. And the best leaders take the time to understand what makes each person tick. ❤️ Which generation do you identify with most—by age or mindset?
