Generational friction is a result of a lack of understanding and consideration -- on all sides. Let's stop putting the generations into buckets. Conversation among the generations brings perspective on how we can work together. Attention, millennials: You can't connect the dots on your career path at the beginning. You can only do that with experience. Start working, add value, do your best, then look for the doors that open for you along the way. Attention, everyone else: Millennials aren't selfish, uncaring job-hoppers. They just don't look at a job as a career until it helps them make a difference. Research shows most millennials would prefer not to job-hop. They're just looking for a job that provides meaningful work and the right schedule. There's often not enough emphasis on the "life" in "work / life balance." You have to attend life, too. New ways of working -- texting, social media, wearing earbuds in the office -- are management issues. If the work is getting done and the outcomes are great, who cares how we got to that point? What happens when generations define "success" differently? How do the conflicting definitions of success affect how we motivate, coach and encourage one another?
