Dr. Eliza Filby on the Intergenerational Workforce and Bridging the Age Divide
Meet , academic, author, podcast host and visiting lecturer at King’s College London. As a consultant and Doctor of British History, Eliza is a ‘historian of contemporary values and generational dynamics’ and specialises in ‘Generational Intelligence’. Her well-documented background on the history of generations and ageing has made her a sought after media commentator for BBC News, Sky News, and BBC Radio 4, as well as a keynote speaker. And in 2022 she was awarded the Europa Forum’s 2022 Millennial Leaders Award. In this episode, she sits down with , to discuss the challenges around bridging the gap between the four generations working alongside each other in the workplace today. Together, they look at how ageing and cultural shifts in the workplace present both points of tension and opportunity for businesses in the twenty-first century. But also how understanding the context, appreciating the value, and learning from the strengths of each generation is key to building a resilient, heterogeneous workforce. Eliza urges employers to look at older workers as the future of their organisation, as much as they do with millennials and Gen Z. With a later retirement age and employees often choosing to stay in work for longer, investing in their wellbeing and development is vital. As Eliza notes, companies need to recognize how the life cycle is changing and then create company policies that reflect that modern reality. This season was inspired by the findings in our national workplace culture report. Using the research as a launch pad for some refreshing conversations with leading experts, the episodes further unpack the biggest questions that organisations are facing today.
