“Chances are, even if a young person should leave, if you are a wonderful, incredible, emotionally intelligent employer, they may just come back to you with more expertise and give you everything you’ve ever dreamed of in an employee.”

Did you know that there are five different generations that make up the workforce? With all these different people of various upbringings, experiences, and perspectives working together, there is bound to be some breakdown in communication. This means that we need to learn how to communicate with one another across the generational gaps.This issue is exactly where my guest, multigenerational expert JoAnne Marlow, comes into play.
JoAnne has spent years studying the different generations as they have come about and evolved. Although a baby boomer herself, through the series of books, workshops, lectures, and consulting she has put forth, she has definitely earned the right to speak on behalf of the different generations. Mixing her teaching background with her success in business and entrepreneurship, JoAnne was kind enough to discuss a few tips older generation employers need to start implementing when dealing with their younger generation employees, especially as they are now the dominant labor force.
Whichever generation you belong to, I highly recommend checking out this week’s episode. JoAnne Marlow could be the bridge to the communication chasm between you and your employees.
