Debunking myths about generations in organizations: From Boomers to Gen Zs

Discussion on the topic is often focused on generalizations and stereotypes of perceived differences, and as a result, generations and generational differences have been blamed for many things, from declining levels of work ethics or higher rates of job-hopping. In this episode, we unpack the myths about generations in organizations, discuss the characteristics of generational diversity, and explore what it means to design age-inclusive workplaces.
