Every generation listens differently, and that means every presenter must learn to adjust. What resonates with Boomers may fall flat with Gen Z, and what motivates Millennials may completely miss with Gen X. The message may stay the same, but the delivery can’t. Author Stephanie Muculasek sits down with Rob to explore how speakers can read generational cues, tailor their tone, and adapt their communication in real time. Drawing from her global experience as a diplomat, executive coach, and leadership trainer, Stephanie breaks down the patterns, preferences, and psychological drivers that shape how audiences of all ages respond.
