    About this ebook

    This is the first time in American history that we have had four different generations working side-by-side in the workplace: the Traditionalists (born before 1945), the Baby Boomers (born 1945-1964), Gen X (born 1965-1980), and the Millennials (born 1981-2001).

    Haydn Shaw, popular business speaker and generational expert, has identified 12 places where the 4 generations typically come apart in the workplace (and in life as well). These sticking points revolve around differing attitudes toward managing one’s own time, texting, social media, organizational structure, and of course, clothing preferences. If we don’t learn to work together and stick together around these 12 sticking points, then we’ll be wasting a lot of time fighting each other instead of enjoying a friendly and productive team. Sticking Points is a must-read book that will help you understand the generational differences you encounter while teaching how we can learn to speak one another’s language and get better results together.

      Given that this book was published in 2013, it's likely that the Traditionalists are all retired by now. But generational differences still exist and the book outlines ways that the workplace can acknowledge, appreciate, flex, leverage and resolve those differences in 12 areas of concern (such as policies, meetings, communication, loyalty). I found intriguing the author's premise that each generation is haunted by ghost stories that impact how they perceive their jobs. It got me wondering how young Millennials and Gen Z will regard their ghost stories of covid-19, racial reckoning and climate change events.
