While baby boomers often defined their professional identity through presence at the workplace, hierarchy, and long hours, Generations Y and Z increasingly prioritise mental health, diversity, flexibility, and meaningful work. The article analyses how these changes impact a discipline that has traditionally relied heavily on practical experience, physical presence at the work place, and a cultivated “feel for the ground.” At the same time, it shows that these challenges also hold potential – for example, through new forms of cross‐generational collaboration and reciprocal knowledge exchange. The article calls for moving beyond binary thinking (“old” vs. “young”) and instead developing sustainable working models that balance presence at the workplace and computer knowledge, intuition and AI – with curiosity, respect, and a touch of humour. 10.1002/geot.70013 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor |
