Pit generations against each other. Mock what they each value and do not change your approaches to them. Remain firm in your tactics and approaches. Go out of your way to mock each generation and their tendencies.

 

I had a boss who would mercilessly mock the work ethic of young new employees. We had to sit through his own stories of how tough he had it when he started with the company. He would relish in giving them meaningless boring work and expect them to get it done by unrealistic deadlines. He then publicly criticized them and the results in a team meeting.
