A couple of weeks ago, my buddy Chris Ferdinandi over at Renegade HR and I talked about multi-generational workforces and what they mean to employers for his podcast (one of the few I actually listen to). Want to have a listen? Of course you do:

So what are always my main points about generations?
- There are differences between various generations.
- Sometimes these differences are blown out of proportion to their importance.
- Often these differences relate to career level rather than generations.
- Truly skilled managers rarely have issues dealing with a multi-generational workforce.
- Problems with managing certain generations often point to greater leadership issues.
- Generation Y can talk about whatever they want but businesses speak the language of action.
I hope you’ll take a listen!

Lance,
It was great chatting with you. I love that one of your tags for this is “generational crap.” Hilarious!
