Walk My Talk-Connecting generations in this disconnected world
Walk my Talk is a genuine guide for young people to take personal control and accountability for their career and life AND an exploration of the different communication styles of each generation in the workplace.
The business world is full of commentary about why different generations are struggling to communicate in the workplace but not about how to understand and change the way different generations think, express themselves and actually listen.
Walk my Talk delves into how younger generations Millennials and Gen Z can navigate their careers and life, the way Gen X and Baby Boomers, think, speak, communicate…or not, and how to bridge this divide.
It’s the handbook for each generation, which means you don’t have to ask your children or parents about the meaning of emojis, why Gen X wants to talk on the phone and Gen Z wants to text or what TL;DR means.
It includes examples of real-life conversations focused around ten key topics. Authenticity, Maturity, Respect, Experience, Attitude, Empathy, Relationships, Experimentation, Rejection and Skills you need to master. And every generation needs to explore each of these.
It’s the ultimate inter-generational guide for:
- HR professionals who have to manage the inter-generational workforce
- Senior executives who just ‘don’t’ get’ Gen Z or Millennials
- Gen Z and Millennials who don’t get Baby Boomer bosses
- Anyone in customer service who deals with customers across all generations.

CHAPTERS
Authenticity
‘Be you, be confident in who you are.’ This is one piece of advice most people will give you. The reality is that it’s much more complex for some of us than for others to be who we are.
Maturity
The one quality that displays a strong sense of experience and can make you a promising candidate for any role is the maturity with which you handle your personal and professional life.
Respect
The one thing that will truly take you a long way is understanding the importance of respect. Respect for yourself and others around you.
Experience
One of the most important questions we come across at every stage of our life is what experience we have. How much experience do we have in a certain role?
Attitude
Your attitude is everything; it makes the most of you. It plays a key role in forming your perspective, and it is the one thing people will remember you by. It is very important to understand.
Empathy
Empathy is one of the most powerful and important skills you can develop in your personal and professional life. People with the ability to empathise tend to build lasting relationships.
Relationships
Relationships are crucial to everyone’s success and happiness. However, if you don’t focus on building relationships, you are losing out on a crucial part of your life.
Experimentation
Experimentation has to play a big role if you want to become and stay relevant at all the different stages of your life.
Rejection
Rejection is an inevitable part of life if you aspire to grow and succeed. Rejection should not be seen as a negative. Again, it is how you see this aspect of your life that dictates everything.
Skills you must master
Focus on how are you are going to be successful. The most important skill to master is the habit of goal setting. Stamina, financial education, networks and relationships.
