In the modern work environment, four different generations are currently employed, collaborating and working together. Differences in values, communication styles, work habits and expectations between generations can affect the effectiveness and success of intergenerational teams. Lack of understanding and respect for different generational perspectives can lead to conflicts, poorer communication and reduced productivity. It is important to recognize these differences and focus on the development of intergenerational cooperation. The theoretical part of the master's thesis describes key concepts for a better understanding of different generations, their values, characteristics and their cooperation in the workplace. The empirical part explores the understanding of intergenerational differences and their cooperation over time. The research showed that younger people are more flexible and sensitive to relationships and culture, while older people demonstrate greater stability and unity in their attitude towards work. The data shows that older generations perceive intergenerational cooperation more uniformly and mostly positively, while younger people demonstrate more diverse views, which may reflect their greater sensitivity to differences in communication styles, work approaches and expectations.
