Dr. Lynda Shaw, a behavioural neuroscientist and leadership psychologist, talks to Alastair about how each generation’s brain wiring influences perceptions and decision-making. She demystifies unconscious bias, explains why different age groups see the world in unique ways, and offers practical tips for keeping communication open and respectful. Whether at home or in the workplace, Dr. Shaw highlights the role of curiosity and mutual respect in uniting generations.
