How does one effectively handle a team and get the work done when all your team members are older to you?

Be a good example. motivate them to be responsible and accountable to every task.give show respect to them ao that they will give reapect also. be a teamplayer on whatever ages to hndle.

Through proper communication with each of my team member, means talking to them personally, knowing what they are best at, communicating with them how they can give their best for this project. Never use harsh words or display harsh behaviour towards them. 

Spreading the culture of respect regardless of age.

In my opinion the age factor is not very important. you mush show some leadership qualities and you need to lead from front. What I learn in my past during one course "Managing People" You need to listen first and do not say yes or not immediately. take your time and understand the pros and cons. Also never reply email when you angry, this will ignite the issue. give your team some liberty and prove them you are not here to rule on them you are here to help them out. In simple words the Manage means to manage something but unfortunately the person who became manager consider him/her self that now you have licence to rule your team. also i think everyone control Tone when you talk with someone and never show anger to your team. also give them importance because they have more experience then you.

No Matter how young you are and how old team members you have you will have good relations.

A leader shall not have any age views, leader shall believe in team work rather than handling them.

be a part of team don't handle, suggest creatives and lead

Utilize division of labor. Divide the job to the old team members so that they will be obliged to accomplished his part.

you should be at there feet and try to understand there weakness at that point so as you can be able to use there weakness to provide positive step towards work development

When there is a significant age gap between team lead and team, it's natural that some competition, conflict may arise.

 

So help team to learn new things and respect their ideas, communicate frequently and transparently to team they will resfect you back to your decision

 

Well being a part of team or a leader of a team its same to me. We all are same when we work together.give respect be friendly to your team also a young person can work fast but a old person cant work same so we need to understand the energy leval of other person too.I think as a team leader if you keep all these point in your mind work can be done and I will be also working with them helping them to finish the work .

Firstly,you need used respective tone for them in order to listen to your instruction of the job and also you have to monitor what they are doing maybe their on the same page with you.You will not see yourself as boss but as team leader to make the work effectively done.
