MENDING THE
GENERATIONAL DIVIDE
Abbreviation of the article from NFDA’s Memorial Business Journal based on
Antonio Green’s and Allyse Worland’s session at NFDA’s convention, USA
he room was filled with a mix of baby
boomers,
gen-Xers,
x-millennials,
social
millennials.
What
Antonio
Green and Allyse Worland attempted
to do in their session, “Mending the
Generational Divide,” during the recent
NFDA International Convention & Expo
in Las Vegas, is work on setting the goal
of gaining a better understanding of
how these groups can best and better
communicate with one another, rather
than simply complaining about each
other.
The back and forth between the generations
sometimes sounds like this:
“You think you know everything, don’t you?”
“Keep on working. You need more experience
before you can offer input here.”
“Why can’t we?”
“Just because it’s been done the same way doesn’t
mean we have to keep doing it that way.”
