In every generation, there’s a “chosen one”—but I’m not talking about Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Right now, we’ve got five generations working side by side: Traditionalists, Baby Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z. So yeah, managing this mix isn’t exactly a walk in the park.  This week, Dave Garcia has returned to dive into the wild world of multi-generational workforces and bring some clarity to it all.  We’re busting some myths, breaking down what each generation really wants (spoiler: it’s not all about avocado toast), and exploring how to lead a team that spans decades.  Whether you’re trying to figure out how to get everyone on the same page or just curious about which generation started the job-hopping trend, this episode is packed with insights. 00:02:50 - How Many Companies Are Still Working With the Traditionalist Generation? 00:06:12 - Challenges With Managing a Multi-generational Workforce 00:10:30 - Using ChatGPT to Better Understand Generational Stereotypes 00:21:55 - Did Gen X Start the Trend of Job Hopping? 00:30:22 - Dave’s Take on Gen Z 00:38:03 - How to Create an Inclusive Culture Among Such Diverse Generations 00:45:30 - Benefits of a Multi-generational Workforce 00:50:26 - The Best Leadership Style for Managing a Multi-generational Workforce 00:55:20 - How to Future Proof Your Organization  And if you love I Hate It Here, sign up to Hebba’s newsletter!
