Statistics show that for the first time in modern history, the workforce consists of five generations, including the Silent Generation (before 1945), Baby Boomers (1946-1964), Generation X (1965-1980), Millennials (1981-2000), and Generation Z (2001-2020). While there are many advantages of having a multigenerational workforce, such as fostering innovation and mentorships, managing such a diverse group of employees also has its challenges.
These generations all have different skillsets and employment goals and finding a way to bridge the gap between them is not an easy task.
