Both private- and public-sector IT leaders are struggling to integrate three generations of talent.

"All of them, in my opinion, can learn from each other," Davood Ghods, VP of government solutions for Direct Technology, told Steve Towns of e.Republic.

Integrating the three generations into one team will cause challenges, but communication and leadership can strengthen the group, according to Ghods, who previously was chief of the Office of Technology Services for the California Department of Technology.

"Nothing takes the place of experience. Give the senior guys a chance to share their experiences and learn from their experiences," Ghods advises people entering IT careers.
