Bridging the Generational Divide
For the first time, we have the possibility of three, sometimes even four different generations trying to work together in our in-plants.
I think it is important to understand how to manage our new employees. In the higher education environment in which I work, it is also important to understand our new customers: the students who enter our institution every fall.
The table of generational characteristics on page 49 is compiled from several different sources. It is important to note that there are different views of the exact time-frame to which each generation refers. A difference of a few years does not necessarily put an individual into a specific group. There may even be subgroups within each generation. And then there are folks like me who never fit in anywhere.
