When Gen Xer's express conflict, their words can be withering.  Direct.  To the point.  No frills discussions.  Interpersonal skills learned by boomers have not been taught in the gen xer's world of instant communication.  Boomers were taught to keep quiet until they understood the political implications of their remarks.  Gen xer's were taught to go online and share their thoughts, impressions and opinions with no holds barred.  Put members of these two groups in a meeting and you''ll see conflict erupt regarding the communication patterns.  Boomer's here's the training opportunity for you.  Design, develop and provide education to new and experienced members of your workforce sharing the insights you've discovered on the fine points of expressing ideas without raising the blood pressure and irritation level of everyone in the room.
