Summary

Generational differences in the workplace aren't something that you might always have on the top of your mind, but they can impact you more than you may realize. How you communicate, how you work with a team, your expectations about your career path, and even the way you relate to authority figures can all be connected to the point in time that your personality and professional identity were being developed.

Understanding your generational differences, particularly how they show up on-the-job, can help you not just understand yourself more deeply, but help you work more effectively with your colleagues.

Join career and leadership coaches Teena E and Markie K on this episode to gain understanding of why you are the way you are on the job, and how you can use awareness of yourself and others to create collaborative connections with your colleagues.

All the best,

Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby

1:15.6	Quick aside, before we jump in. I thought I was being so clever. I went into a liquor store to
1:21.5	purchase a bottle of wine not too long ago and I got carded. Interestingly, I'm sure they were just
