company where he had worked for 25 years.

00:00:06

These walls had witnessed his youth,

00:00:09

ambitions,

00:00:09

and successes.

00:00:10

He had his routines and memories here.

00:00:13

One morning at the coffee machine,

00:00:15

a colleague whispered to him,

00:00:17

Have you seen the news?

00:00:19

The young woman in her 30s who just arrived,

00:00:21

she's your new boss.

00:00:23

Henry first thought it was a bad joke,

00:00:26

but indeed Sophie was his new supervisor.

00:00:30

Initially,

00:00:30

Henry was reluctant.

00:00:32

Sophie came with innovative ideas,

00:00:34

talking about new technologies,

00:00:36

agile methods,

00:00:37

flexibility,

00:00:38

autonomy,

00:00:38

and co-responsibility.

00:00:40

All this was far from Henry's tried and tested methods.

00:00:44

He retreated into silence,

00:00:46

worried about his job and the company.

00:00:49

Would she lead them astray with her youthful exuberance?

00:00:52

Sophie,

00:00:53

on the other hand,

00:00:54

observed him quietly.

00:00:56

She was young,

00:00:56

yes,

00:00:57

but not inexperienced.

00:00:58

She'd managed diverse teams and navigated tough situations.

00:01:02

She recognized Henry's potential as invaluable.

00:01:05

One day she invited him to lunch.

00:01:08

Between bites she started a conversation.

00:01:11

Henry,

00:01:12

tell me about the time when everything started for you here.

00:01:15

How did you overcome obstacles?

00:01:17

Surprised Henry engaged,

00:01:20

he told her his story.

00:01:21

She asked questions,

00:01:22

and she listened.

00:01:24

Sophie quickly realized that Henry's experience

00:01:27

and perspective were true assets.

00:01:29

Instead of sidelining him,

00:01:31

she decided to integrate him more.

00:01:33

She offered him training on new tools,

00:01:36

sought his input in strategic decisions,

00:01:38

and encouraged him to share his.

00:01:41

With the younger staff,

00:01:42

gradually they became allies.

00:01:45

Henry softened and reassured.

00:01:47

He realized that the world was evolving,

00:01:50

but his experience still had a place.

00:01:52

He learned how to handle digital tools

00:01:55

while imparting his knowledge and perspective.

00:01:58

Months passed

00:01:59

and the company witnessed an unexpected but fruitful collaboration between

00:02:03

the vigor of youth and the wisdom of experience.
