  • caldwdo Doug Caldwell , Facilitator Extraordinaire’ at O*M*G* Moments Thanks for the question about which generation cohort is it what year bracket. It's a best choice on my part from many sources for example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_generations. Several authors on books and articles about generations generally agree on certain dates and disagree on others. 3 years ago Reply

  • caldwdo Doug Caldwell , Facilitator Extraordinaire’ at O*M*G* Moments Thanks for finding my presentation about generations. I was just discussing with some business associates about the delay of baby boomers to retire. They longer they delay, the longer it will be for the next generation to take over. Your article makes a lot of sense. But what are the business, community and social leaders going to to about the developing situation? 3 years ago Reply

  • caldwdo Doug Caldwell , Facilitator Extraordinaire’ at O*M*G* Moments Thanks for taking the time to comment. And to view the presentation. It's nice to be noticed in cyberspace. Several years ago I heard Eric Chester's presentation on the same topic. He was very engaging and informative. 3 years ago Reply

  • speaktostudents Byron Wolt , Professional Speaker at speaktostudents.com I really liked your presentation. I speak to high school students everyday in the school year and belive that much of the millenial student conflicts with boomers and Xer teachers can be avoided/resolved with understanding some of the key points made in this presentation.



    I also like to present with the question and answer format you used at the end as a way to focus disucssion. Thanks.







    Also, Annehelly made a ppoint about research on intergenerational work enviroments, I have run across a speaker named Eric Chester who focuses on Millenial's in the workplace but does have good information on other generations as well.     3 years ago Reply

  • caldwdo Doug Caldwell , Facilitator Extraordinaire’ at O*M*G* Moments Thanks for sharing your opinion on the presentation. I would hope everyone does value other individuals and not put them into some sort of category such as boomers, Gen X simply based on age. But one needs to recognize that very broad generalizations can be made about people who have shared experiences which creates common values. When I mention fighting in the Vietnam War to a 2008 teenager, they have no idea what I am talking about. But to many of my Baby Boomer generation the Vietnam War and other events of the 1960s are as important to common values of my peers as the American Idol is to today's teens. But I don't get American Idol. It must be a generation thing. Please take the time to review my other presentation on generation here at: http://www.slideshare.net/caldwdo/generational-smashups-creating-your-strategy-to-prevent-generational-collisions. It explains the generational differences a bit further. Again thanks for watching and reading. 4 years ago Reply

  • viviansushi viviansushi This is dumb. You have a lopsided view of generations. Why do the two largest groups, Boomers and Millenials, include 20 years each, and the two other groups include far fewer years. Have you read the book 'How to Lie with Statistics?' Of course there would be more of one or the other based on how you divide the time span. Painting pretty pie charts does not indicate anything. There is such a myth around the changing times and who believes what. How can you make such generalizations with confidence? Its easy to put people into categories, because then you don't have to recognize the person in front of you. You can live by your biased generalizations instead. Anyone who uses a presentation like this is asking their audience to NOT think critically on assessing individuals. Its propaganda. 4 years ago Reply

  • Annehkelly Annehkelly , executive at Federal Consulting Group Hello Caldwdo, Thank you so much for allowing me to download this. I am making a presentation at the end of April to the Training Officers Consortium at their annual meeting to be held in Norfolk, Virginia. I shall let you know the response to my presentation. The topic is 'Be an intergenerational master trainer.' I am doing loads of research in order to put this together, as there isn't anything that speaks to training across the 4 gens. in the workplace today. 4 years ago Reply
