For the first time, we're dealing with five generations coexisting in the workplace, all with different drivers and attitudes—especially regarding tech.
- Traditionalists are very hard-working, and as the name suggests, they prefer a traditional work environment and flow.
- Baby boomers have workaholic tendencies and are very company-loyal.
- Generation X put a high priority on work-life balance.
- Millennials are very tech-savvy and enjoy collaborative environments.
- Generation Z are highly connected digital natives.
As technology continues transforming our lives, it can be a driver for multi-generation collaboration rather than a barrier. It's time to take advantage of the ever-increasing tech developments and make your five-generation workforce... work.
