I’m always interested in the concept of generational differences which has come up a couple times recently – after Shea attended a workshop on reaching out to young people in the workplace and then during a conversation in my workplace where a few of us “oldies” had fun explaining what life was like in the time of cassette tapes and the allure of Vanilla Ice to a young Millennial/recent University grad.
Many people who study generational differences cite three main factors that contribute to creating the generational divides – economics, shared cultural experiences and major world-changing events (assassinations, shuttle explosions, terrorist attacks, etc.)
Fascinating stuff.
