A multi-generational leader comes with opportunities to develop his subordinates from different generations through special projects, training or mentoring.
Communicate via more channels
While the older generation generally prefers personal contact, written reports or e-mail, the younger generation prefers mobile devices and the Internet. That is, of course, not true for everyone, but that is also why a multi-generational leader should be able to use all available channels and select them according to the preferences of the individual members of his team.
Individual approach
Different people are different even within one generation. Therefore, a multi-generational leader must be able to access each member of his team individually; address individual needs, aspirations and opinions on what is happening in the organization.
