Why read it?

1 author picked When Generations Collide as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Reading Stillman and Lancaster’s book changed my life.

They created a framework, a concept, that I’d been looking for… that events and conditions experienced in their formative lives inform how we see the world. From Traditionalists to Boomers to Gen X and Millennials, we all have been shaped by what we lived through when we were growing up, and leads us to see the world differently.

I bring that lens into every interaction with people I meet now. I highly recommend this read. It will change how you see the world.
