Bridging Generations in Healthcare: Lessons, Boundaries, and Hope
The strength in generational differences to create a sustainable, connected healthcare workforce
In this episode, I’m looking at the challenges and strengths of working across generations in healthcare today. From the experienced perspectives of Gen X leaders to the fresh approaches of younger healthcare professionals, the workplace has never been more diverse—or more dynamic. So yes, frustrations and learning moments arise from different attitudes towards work-life boundaries, commitment, and adaptability.
Sharing some of my early career experiences and the shifts in workplace culture, I’m suggesting that leaders can build a collaborative environment by embracing curiosity, growth, and open conversations.
I think the answer to having a sustainable workforce in healthcare can be found when we listen to the younger generations and support their growth with the wisdom and perspective of those of us who have been around a little longer.
Intergenerational teamwork is here, and together we have the answers to what will make healthcare work.
