Publisher's Synopsis
What to do when older executives and founders say goodbye to retirement? How can more or less sudden breaks in organizations be avoided? And how do different generations with differently socialized employees get along at all? In her book, Simone Emanuel provides the answer to these questions: with a functioning generation and junior management that stimulates dialogue between the generations. This is a challenge because communication with one another is not always successful and is often characterized by conflicts. The author presents solutions for transition strategies so that the next generation can be built up in good time and the appreciation, farewell and legacy of departing executives succeed. Using practical examples from nonprofit organizations, she also gives recommendations for systemic intergenerational dialogue and mentoring.
