Purpose:Identifying the existing typesof generations, the major differences in opinions of various generations on different areas of life, like language use, technological influences, workplace attitude etc., and where do these differences come from. Design/methodology/approach: The research is focused on presenting some differences in the perspective on life of the existing generation types, the influence of those on intergenerational relationships. Findings: Major generation groups: The Silent Generation (those born between 1928-1945), Baby boomers (those born between 1946-1964), Generation X (1965-1980), Generation Y / Millennials (1981-1990), Generation Z (1990-2010), Generation Alpha (2010-present). The major differences between generations may be perceived in the areas of: - language use – the new generations adopt a new language, slang, in order to differentiate themselves from previous generations; - technological influences– young people are relying more on technological devices, like cell phones, in order to distance themselves from the older generations, to define new social circles; - workplace attitude – young generations are more confident in themselves when applying for a new job, while being greeted by a multigenerational team. The problem of solidarity between generations becomes a challenge in the political, educational, cultural areas and more. Promoting intergenerational understanding by providing an opportunity to come together and share ideas and experiences about what really matters to them in life and to start a broader debate on the values of today's society. These differences stem from older and younger people not understanding each other because of their differences in experiences, opinions, habits, and behaviour.
