Human Resource and Talent Management Job Satisfaction and Organizational Behavior Generational Differences and Trends

Abstract

The composition of organizations in terms of the length of service and age distribution of its members is important for understanding a wide variety of phenomena ranging from innovation to turnover rates. Cohorts (groups of people who have entered the organization at about the same time) play an important role in shaping organizational conflict, power, and politics. Managers need to better understand the role of organizational demography if they are to improve the functioning of their organization.
