From the Author:

When we began the process of exploring Baby Boomers and Generation Xers in the workplace, it was with genuine curiosity about how these two very different groups of people might interact over important workplace issues. Our exploration, as with any good research, has answered some questions, and raised even more. What becomes increasingly apparent is that the way in which organizations function in the future will need to be very different from the way in which they have functioned in the past, if the true value of each employee is to be optimized. And no company can expect, in this increasingly competitive and global economy, to succeed without optimizing its workforce. It is gratifying to us that, as people become familiar with our book and its recommendations, the response continues to be positive. Our hope in the beginning was that, at the least, this book would stimulate some new ways of thinking about Boomers and Xers at work. We are happy to see that it is doing just that.
