人与人之间并不总是能够相互理解，人们的工作方式也不尽相同。我们有不同的沟通方式，不同的工作习惯，不同的事情优先级，不同的工作理念，甚至 不同的工作目的。在职场中，人与人之间的文化和价值观冲突一直存在。这些冲突往往被强制推行"一刀切"企业文化所压制。但是，人们渐渐意识到，或 许差异和摩擦并不会减缓业务增长，反而可以促进业务增长，而促成这些也需要一个与曾经不同类型的领导者。 代沟（代际之间的文化和价值观差异）是职场冲突的一种明显表现。一些在较为刻板的工作环境中成长起来的人们，如今正在领导千禧一代和其他不在这 种环境中成长起来的人。在职场中，如果年长员工和年轻员工真的互相难以沟通，或无法产生同理心，则会影响公司的生产力。 职场中，代际差异和文化冲突常常影响工作方式和沟通，尤其是年长员工和年轻员工之间的理解问题。随着千禧一代和Z世代逐渐成为职场主 力，传统的"一刀切"企业文化已难以适应他们的需求。换位思考和倾听员工心声，是解决代沟问题、提升组织生产力的有效方式。 关于"同理心" 对我来说，同理心就是透视，通过他人的眼睛看世界，了解他人所看到的背景。你要理解他人行为的出发点：他们为什么这么说？他们为什么用那种语气 说？ ...
