Abstract

This software is to accompany the case. A consultant had been asked by multiple clients for advice on how to manage generational differences in the workplace. According to experts in the area of generational differences, generations are defined by the watershed events and conditions that individuals were exposed to in their formative years. These experts believed that these common events and conditions shaped individuals' attitudes, which in turn influenced their core beliefs and work values. The consultant, like many others, felt that generational differences were over-hyped in the literature. Nevertheless, her client wanted answers and she set out to find them by collecting a data set on work values.The dataset contained over 1,000 responses across the four generations (Veterans, Boomers, Gen X, Gen Y). It also contained enough responses to deal with the question of whether there were three sub-generations of Boomers.
