Success Thru Connections
Millennials & Boomers: Why Every Generation Matters in Business
What happens when a millennial, a Gen Xer, and a baby boomer walk into a panel? You get a room full of laughter—and a moment that made me stop and reflect.
In this solo episode of Success Through Connections, I’m diving into something that’s been on my mind lately: how generations interact in the workplace… and what happens when we stop listening to each other.
It all started with a moment at a women’s conference. A casual comment from a millennial panelist about “not needing notes” sparked something deeper in me. What followed was a reflection on what we often overlook when it comes to experience, leadership, and value—especially when it comes from older generations.
We talk about:
- Why wisdom isn’t just “nice to have” in the workplace—it’s essential
- The subtle ways we undervalue experience (and how it shows up in meetings, hiring, and collaboration)
- How organizations can build stronger teams by intentionally bringing all generations to the table
- Why being labeled a “mentor” shouldn’t mean being sidelined—or unpaid
This isn’t about calling anyone out—it’s about calling everyone in. If you care about leadership, inclusion, or building a culture where ideas and experience meet, this one’s for you.
