Great job! I think this applies to many of the challenges we are facing in our culture today! Well done!

Every word made so much sense. The whole analysis of not bucketizing people makes so much sense. Knowing what the person is good at. Woooow!!!

Outstanding video!! Thanks Leah for sharing your insightful wisdom.

Years ago (lol, early 70s) I had a professor that challenged us to look at those managing us through a filter which described where in life were they at their early teens? What was society like? What was the world like? What were the monumental events that happened and how did they think/feel/react? Step out of our box and learn from the other person. I enjoyed your talk very much, look forward to others!

Beautifully expressed and moving!

Been listening to so many of these about generations, and this lady seems the only person to talk about it with any level of intelligence.

Yup, all of them are "I'm GenX I'm so unique, my parents didn't watch me every second of the day and I like to work independently." Also, the whole "born in 1980 and grew up with loads of technology" makes these people like they just landed here from Mars. Only person with a cell phone in the 90s was Amanda on Melrose Place.

Informative talk. Thank you, bless you. All your dreams come true.

A noble, yet viable approach to "communicating" for a better workplace We hear a lot about customer profiling, but very little about employees profiling While I think that a general grouping is necessary to efficient organizations, the addressing of individualism is crucial to optimizing performance I loved the "fact" you mentioned about us waiting too long for people to become wise, but only declaring them wise on retirement day! WHAT IF WE BUILD "INSTITUTIONAL WISDOM" EARLIER?

Grateful to find this as I research how employees are to navigate the "new workforce" I much prefer this lense! Thank you, well said.

Good information. Thanks!

You rock Leah!

I've been looking for some tips to manage and overcome the generational differences in a workplace for class assignment but she gave me totally new points of view.

Brilliant!! Well done!!

Well said. When we focus on people as individuals and provide an environment where everyone is respected and has the opportunity to do meaningful work, grow, and advance we find that people are wonderful whatever "generation" we consider them in. This is the best presentation I've seen on "generations." Thank you Leah George!

Her insight is phenomenal! Well done!

She is very well spoken. The research is so versatile! The lightweight jokes really make the content easier to digest. She definitely asks the right questions!

Thank you.

Why did this speech tear up my eyes ;_; so beautifully put!!! Thank you so much for the insights!!

Great content about how a people-first approach instead of focusing on a generation is the most important thing in business. Find common space and connect your employees with your employer.

13:20 Because curiosity got beat out of us. So we learn to stop showing it in those circles. Asking "why", "You're annoying", "it's not appropriate", "stop asking questions".

United We Stand.....Divided We Fall. Our Diversity Is Our Strength...!! Seek Out Those Who Are Positive. You Will Succeed !

What a wonderfully insightful lecture. It filled me with hope that people of different generations can set aside their differences and work towards a common goal, but only briefly. For as one often does, but should never do, I scrolled through these comments. What I found were angry people of the generations that preceded my own, fixated on a single statement, or even her choice of eyewear, to dismiss everything that she'd said. They looked past all the positives, and brought down one of the few millennials that has taken a stand for their generation, that's trying to prove that they offer something of value for our world, and have knowledge and wisdom to offer as well. It's disheartening to see that even when a millennial takes a stand for the other generations, they still try and tear her down. So, I come here to see if there are baby boomers and generation Xers who are more than their loudest peers. Who listen with open ears and hearts, who have hope for the younger generation, understand our frustrations and struggles, and know that most of us are not our stereotypes, just as I know you aren't yours. It's easy to believe the stereotypes, when the stereotypical people of our respective generations are generally the most outspoken and loudest ones; since spreading hate and shouting angrily is far easier than spreading hope and understanding. I want to hear from you all, the ones that we SHOULD be hearing over the hate and cynicism of our peers who give us all a bad name.

Watching this after Mary Donogue's talk about generations was SO refreshing! I hate the generational stereotypes, even if some are accurate, it's pointless to obsess over it.

BRILLIANT!

I love this: "Pick a person, just one, and explore their onliness, and then learn, and then in the moments where its appropriate teach, and figure out what they bring to work that no one else can bring to work." "Maybe let's do our best to humbly meet people where they are and how they show up that day generation and all." Thank you from an individual with Gen X'er tendancies :-)

There will always be generations and generalizations because humanity loves to group things... it's easier than getting to know everybody one on one

Interesting.,.

How do i get to speak to you Leah. i have a client looking for a speaker on intergen issues. I cannot find you on LI

That shoulder pads part got me by a surprise ❤️❤️

"She's wise.... for a millennial." ha ha ok ok i'm kidding. this is an outstanding presentation. look at the individual, not the generation. reflect deeply if we keep criticising the younger generation if we are their parents, especially.

Now if you google the years for Millenial you get 1981-1996 birthdays and Gen Z is 1997-2012 birthdays, which means in 2020 the college grads are Gen Z

I don't know man a ball pit in the break room might be pretty dope.

Well, in my mind, generations are just meant to be people raised under similar conditions.

I worked in factories where everyone(regardless of generation) was told to do your job, or you get fired. Pretty simple.

It seems that we Americans have become obsessed with generational differences over the past ten years or so. Why is that? It’s annoying. I’m with Leah here about how generational labels are arbitrary and we should look at people as individuals. Although, I’m sure some of the generational stereotypes are true and we can identify with a group of people who experienced the same events, but it is not the sum of a person. She has some valid insights, although she kind of contradicted herself. At the beginning, she said something about how Millennials believe they will change the world and she thinks they will (makes sense that she thinks highly of people in that demographic, since she’s “one of them”), while at the same time debunking the notion of generational stereotypes and tropes all together; In other words, the “generational labels” that we have created aren’t real in the first place, so how can one group of people born during a certain time span change the world-or do anything-if generational constructs don’t actually exist? So, to me this leads back to my question: Why are Americans obsessed with talking about generational differences and labels?

That is a "Bjork" type statement in electromagnetics: "We are attracted to those like us." Carl Anthony Bjork (German Electronics Engineer), you know "flying saucer" tech.

Nothing is more awkward than the old “I typically don’t like working with/hate people in your age group/generation but you’re an exception because of X,Y and Z” - especially when it’s out of the blue, just completely changing the subject just to say that. Bonus points if it’s within 1 hour of meeting them for the first time. Even more if they haven’t actually seen you work much/at all due to a naturally slow day so that assumption is pure vibes.

Just wanna mention she's not using the generally accepted spans of time for those generations. Which may be because her statistics use those ages as markers. Doubt it's a coincidence that 2018 puts gen z as 0-18 years old.

Im a gen x'er. The lost generation came before world war I

Perhaps we can remove the divide by getting rid of the labels. The expectations of a business should apply to all employees at any age or level with the only difference being knowledge and experience. All I care about is "can you do the job?". And yes, accept that EVERYONE has their own issues. Some day, millennials will BE Gen X.

Right out the 80's as a Gen X, never seen this rift, or shoulder pad silliness. Lol sounds like YOU are making self conflict to up "Internal competition.

I would give it a 9/10 but her (what seemed like a strong) ending with the "lens" and "lenses" analogy was extremely ocularcentric and I think that while the central points of her talk of course surround age diversity, she failed to recognize her analogy of another form of diversity (ADA, ableism, stuff like that etc) with the language age she used and in turn exemplified a bias herself (e.g. to those who don't have a vision impairment). So close, but not quite! Perhaps she should have someone review her speaking notes prior to filming. Either way overall, still really enjoyed and good info that I learned.

That Millennial that asks for a raise 2 months into their job are entitled.. everybody had to pay off some kind of debt before, but they had to earn it... you don't get to jump the head of the line because you are in need right now

Dates seem to be different everywhere you look. What I've learned is that most dates are more guidelines, where there are no hard cut-off dates. They're more blurred lines, where generations gradually fade from one into the next. I've seen the dates she says in some articles, but I tend not to pay much attention to them. I'm one of those that was born on a generational cusp, according to some I belong to one generation, and other sources say I belong to the other.

She’s wearing her shiny shoes bare feet

No, generations are not the conversation at work!

"Study person and its onlyness..." is such a millennial thing to say.

funny how the speaker exhibits the very stereotypes she contests...like wanting to find meaning...

In a multicultural work environment and where people come from all over the world, all this talk is irrelevant. This is just talk in the US

Generational humility then falls on us the GEN Xers. We are the ones who groveled to the boomers and now we have to grovel to the Millenials and to the GenZers. Where is our RESPECT ?

What about makes you angry? And why?

I don’t know about this generation or that generation. I didn’t listen to this entire KZread video to time constraints. Now, I do know that all of this is a little off-topic. Generations being what they are, I know there is ageism.. I’m experiencing that in the workplace. If there’s not a book, like this out there with a similar title… someone needs to write a book on Ageism: the acceptable discrimination , since it’s available to everyone. Or for shock value change the word discrimination to racism in quotes. It’s new for me, but Trust me, it feels very oppressive.

Ok Boomer

If only she hadn’t started her talk by repeating the usual unfounded, untrue, ageist stereotypes.

Has that nag voice... also not all millennials have massive amounts of debt. Jobs don’t hand out raises because of you rack up debt. Cry me a river.
