Never before have members of so many diverse generations worked in organizations at the same time. Successfully working with and managing this multigenerational workforce requires that managers know the values and strengths of each generation and understand how each generation can best contribute to the needs of the organization. This article looks at each generation--how and why certain values were developed, the differences and similarities between the generations, and how members of each generation can work most effectively with members of other generations.
