Episode 8: Generation Nation – What do millennials know anyway?
Another opportunity to be face to face with Kristen proudly wearing a half grown moustache – more on that below – for an episode of The Spin talking about generations.
Inspired by an October NYT article, we explored the five different generations in the workplace including:
- Traditionalists or Silent Generation - 1945 and before
- Baby Boomers - 1946-1964
- Generation X - 1965-1976
- Millennials or Gen Y - 1977-1995
- Generation Z or iGen or Centennials - 1996-now
With Mark being a proud Gen X (or is that an Z?) and Kristen just getting in there as a millennial, we shared our experiences that have informed (or misinformed) the generational labels.
We also shared some take aways for organizations:
- Ensure you can use the labels to inform an attraction strategy
- If you’re leading a team find the commonalities rather than extenuating the differences
- Encourage team members to treat everyone as individuals
- Consider having an impact statement
And for individuals we encouraged building awareness and challenging assumptions of others.

If you enjoyed this episode, we’d be very excited if you took the time to do a review on your favourite podcast platform or share it with a friend.
