Beyond Generational Labels: New Approaches to Older-Younger Conflict at Work
Bypaulgruensfelder April 30, 2026

Healthcare workplaces increasingly face conflict between older and younger employees, worsened by generational labeling that introduces age bias rather than resolving tension.

The author, an employee experience advisor at Marshfield Clinic–Sanford Health, proposes a shift toward personality-based frameworks to address conflict more effectively. Left unaddressed, intergenerational friction can escalate from misunderstanding to grievance, disengagement, or termination. A related ASHHRA session offers practical reframing strategies and tools for HR and operations leaders managing multigenerational teams.
