Meeting the needs of every generation may sound impossible, but shared values—like inclusion, openness, and honesty—make it manageable. In fact, misunderstandings can strengthen collaboration if handled well. Leaders have a key role here: to remain neutral, to avoid favoring one generation’s approach, and to act as mediators.

“Young people are eager to learn from someone experienced—but they need this knowledge delivered on their terms. This is where leadership has a key mediating role between generations, as these frameworks can only be realized through them.”
– Dr. Katalin Baracsi
