Dr Eliza Filby

Dr Eliza Filby is a writer, historian and consultant who specialises in ‘Generational Intelligence’, helping companies, governments and services understand generational shifts within politics, society, and the workplace.

Eliza is the author of Fuelling Gender Diversity: Unlocking the Next Generation Workplace and Mind the Gap: Managing a Multi-Generational Workforce in the Post Pandemic Age and hosts her podcast, It’s All Relative, on the generation gap. She unpacks the myths and realities behind how different age groups really act, think, consume and view the world. As influence, wealth and expectations shift from one group to another, Eliza considers the evidence and interprets the data into practical actions for organisations and leaders.

Eliza has worked with a variety of organisations from VICE media to Warner Brothers, from the Ministry of Defence to the Royal Household, and with banks such as HSBC, Barclays, BNYMellon in Canada and Macquarie in Australia. She has spoken at the EU’s Human Rights Forum on teenagers and technology; the Financial Times CEO forum on the future of work and to the UK’s House of Lord’s Select Committee on intergenerational unfairness. Eliza sits on the Board of the Mission Group plc. as Non-Executive Director.  She was awarded the Europa Forum’s Millennial Leaders Award.

Eliza received her PhD from the University of Warwick and subsequently taught at King’s College, London, and the University of Renmin in China. Her writing has been published in The Times, Guardian, and the Financial Times.
