Great book March 26, 2008 This book does a great job of discussing the points of view of both sides of the generations, both young and seasoned professionals. I find that it is not only useful for creating effective work relationships but also those personal relationships we all have with different generations such as parents, grandparents and children. I am pleased to recommend this book to anyone who has had to deal with challenges caused by misunderstandings of different generations.
Aha moments March 19, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Success is the synthesis of great attitude with better communication. This book will help you take both to the next level. As a "young professional," I felt like the author almost knew my exact situation as she illumined the missteps that both I and my bosses, those crazy "seasoned professionals," were taking in the workplace. I lost count of the number of times I said to myself, "Oh, so that's why..." as I was reading. A week ago, I was hardly conscious that generations existed, and couldn't understand why I was so misunderstood by my department heads--or why those same bosses were just as unintelligible to me. Now, I see intergenerational communications problems almost everywhere (and not just at work), and its all I can do not to shout, "Look, its OK...this is where this problem comes from, and this is how to make it better." Read this book.
She GETS it. March 16, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Wow! The author brings to light so many important issues in today's workforce. It's one of those books you'll have trouble putting down because it just makes so much sense. I found it very easy to read and enjoyed the stories. In some cases, ignorance is bliss -- in the case of generational diversity, there is much to learn and apply. This book will help you do EXACTLY that. I look forward to purchasing more books from this author and have been recommending it to others...daily.
