As we consider the traits that differentiate each generation, we will discuss how these impact their unique communication styles and ultimately, what the impact is on the firms as the leadership strives to integrate all employees into one cohesive unit. We will conclude with practical tips regarding leading, managing and communicating across the generations, given their disparate styles.
