This episode delves into the complexities of Generation X within the consulting industry, exploring their unique attitudes toward work, technology, and professional development. Ian and Mike illuminate how this generation, born between 1965 and 1980, has significantly benefitted from the growth of the consulting sector since the 1990s. The discussion encompasses the motivations that led many Gen X individuals to pursue careers in consulting, highlighting the ambition and skill-building ethos that characterized their approach to work. Furthermore, the episode examines the pivotal thinkers and texts that have influenced their professional perspectives, including notable works by Tom Peters and Peter Senge. Through this exploration, we aim to better understand the generational dynamics at play within the consulting profession and the ongoing evolution of workplace values.
