How do you connect with the older generation at your company? There seems to be such a huge divide and I don't know how to bridge that gap!

Don't try to consider their age :) Instead, approach them as people and be open-minded to hear and learn from them!

Just treat them with respect. The rest will fall into place.

Seek their specific input on an issue. They may bring expertise and insight that has not been considered and show that you value the information that they have shared. Consider method of communication as well. Some may prefer face to face and phone calls instead of the quick text/instant messaging route.

Do your job well and smile and say hello. Is that how you connect to your own generation?

The older generation enjoys learning about what the kids are up to these days. Just talk to them the way you would usually with same-age peers. In my experience, it always leads to a fun time!

Good morning! It's Tony coming from HyperDraft HQ in Los Angeles. Looking forward to chatting with folks about leaving Big Law (or surviving it), transitioning in-house, Legal Tech, or any thing and everything about the legal industry.

Quick background, I'm a former Big Law M&A and in-house attorney turned Legal Tech founder. Now I spend my time creating software solving all the painpoints y'all hate.

Drop any questions you have below in the comments. Hope your day is off to a great start!

Currently a manager for an OP clinic. Gave my notice after receiving an offer back in patient care for more money and a better schedule. Spoke to my RVP today who had nothing but positive feedback. He asked for feedback on how to prep the next non-clinical manager as others in the region have been fired or underperformed. Should I be insulted he did not offer me a raise? Wondering if I should use this an opportunity to negotiate or run as I have been feeling undervalued?

I’m a bariatric coordinator and an RN. I graduate with my MSN in executive leadership in December. I’ve always wanted to go into leadership. My CNO turned my current job into a “leadership” position. I feel like all of this was done in attempts to get me to “be quiet”. I feel so overlooked, and under appreciated. I’ve been a nurse for 8 years, and worked 7.5 years in high risk ICU. Where I was a charge nurse and a nursing house supervisor as well. Does anyone have any advice? I feel so deflated
