This is, afterall, how we as individuals and generations view the world, the framing and angles that we have. Nice article, thank-you.

I have found that when a strengths-based focus is used, people more readily listen to differing opinions.

I love the response of "I see it differently." It is so simple, but so rarely said, and not just in conversations between different generations. Nice article.

There was an opportunity to make something more efficient, and if managers/excutives are able to listen and have an open conversation it can make the company better off in the long run.
