Four Generations in the Workplace


Hello, welcome to my blog. Today I wanted to share about the four different generations that are currently in the workplace. First there is the Veteran generation. They are also known as Silents and Traditionalists and they were born between the time periods of 1928-1945. Then there is the Baby Boomer generation. They were born between 1946-1964. There is also Generation X, also known as Gen X and Xers. They were born between 1965-1979. Lastly, there is Generation Y, also known as Gen Y and Yers. They were born between 1980-2000.

  2. There is a major communication gap between the different generations when it comes to the use of technology. Veterans, for example, prefer to write letters and memos. Generation Y is very tech savy, they would rather email or text to communicate.
