Biography: David Stillman is a generations expert, speaker, writer and one of the rare Generation X keynoters on the speaking scene today. Recently named to the prestigious list of "Forty Under 40" movers and shakers by "The Business Journal", David's blend of honesty, irreverence, energy and inspiration earn him the highest marks from corporate and association audiences alike. David is co-author with Lynne Lancaster of the best selling business book "When Generations Collide: Who They Are, Why They Clash, How to Solve The Generational Puzzle at Work (HarperCollins 2002). David and Lynne are co-founders at Bridgeworks, a company dedicated to enlightening organizations on who the generations are in today's workplace and what makes them click, clash and collide. David's interest in intergenerational communication was born when he was employed as creative director for the multimedia production firm, Integrated Strategies, Inc. As he worked with clients like 3M, American Express, Lutheran Brotherhood, and Norwest Bank he concluded that communication strategies that hit hot buttons of one generation often missed the mark with another. Thus began his research on the events and influences that shaped the generations. David's ensuing creative output earned him numerous accolades including medals at the NY Film Festival, the Houston Film Festival, and the much-coveted CLIO Award. Since then, David has translated his interest in diagnosing generational issues in corporate America into a succesful speaking and writing career. His collaboration with Lynne Lancaster continues, and they are in the process of researching their second and third books on generational topics. He is a sought-after media commentator who has been interviewed for TIME and Parents magazines, as well as on CNN, CNBC and the Today Show. And, late last year, David launched BridgeWorks premiere corporate entertainment offering, "David Stillman Times Four". David began his career with ABC television as an intern for Prime Time. He then embarked on a round-the-world trip that included stints as a roving reporter for CBS radio covering such events as the end of apartheid in South Africa and the fall of the former Soviet Union. He is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin at Madison with B.A. degrees in Communications and Sociology. In addition, he completed Mass Media in Britain, a Michigan State University program in conjunction with the British Broadcasting Company. A model Gen X dad, David lives in Minneapolis where he and his wife are the proud parents of two Millennials. |
