What it takes to turn generational diversity into stronger teams and better decisions 

For the first time in history, five generations are working side by side, bringing different expectations, experiences, and ways of working into the same teams. 

For leaders at every stage of their career, this is no longer a background trend, it is a defining reality of modern organizations. 

In this IMD Book Club session, Rebecca Robins, co-author of Five Generations at Work, joins IMD Professor Katharina Lange to explore how these differences can be turned into a source of strength rather than friction. 

Together, they will examine what distinguishes organizations that struggle with generational divides from those that use them to drive better decisions, stronger collaboration, and higher performance. 

What you’ll learn
How generational differences shape expectations of work, leadership, and purpose
Why many organizations struggle to align across age groups and what works instead
What high-performing teams do differently to bridge generational divides
How to turn diverse perspectives into better decision-making and innovation
Practical ways to lead effectively across generations, whatever your level of experience

Who should attend

This session is designed for professionals and emerging leaders who want to better understand how to navigate and lead within diverse, multi-generational teams.
