“Educate with Nice Words, But Let it Play Too”. The Challenges of the Presence of New Generations in Education and the Labour Market

Summary/Abstract: In everyday life, it is common to immediately look for the answer to misunderstandings between people of different ages in rightful or wrongful stereotypes related to generations. The presence of social generations linked to birth years is widely accepted and widespread knowledge for both labor market players and higher education players. The actuality of the topic is given by the fact that, like every generation, the education system of today’s schoolchildren (Generation Z and Alfa) was developed and taught by a previous generation. However, the values and teaching methods of the X generation are entirely different from those of the generations that have grown up in the digital world today. Labor market players face similar challenges. Most of today’s managers are from different eras; they use different management and motivational tools and think about different organizational structures than those with which they could increase and retain current career employees’ commitment. In this article, I not only detail the educational and workplace conflicts of the different generations, but the formation of attitudes also plays a prominent role. The article’s author’s principle is that generational differences should not be treated as a problem but as an opportunity.
