I don’t agree with Forbes that generational theory is just a fad. I appears to me that the theory has good explanatory power, provided that this is not applied to individuals.
I do agree the use of labels( although a convenient shorthand) is generally overdone. Elimination of labels may be impossible, but great restraint in use of labels would be constructive.

… "We must begin to see generational theory for what it is: an opportunistic fad that exaggerates differences between generations to no real benefit except to the Gen-Experts themselves.
You can begin to make a difference by eliminating labels from your vocabulary and explaining to your colleagues why you’ve chosen to do so.”
