This document discusses managing a multigenerational workforce. It identifies four generations currently in the federal workforce: Traditionals, Baby Boomers, Generation X, and Generation Y. Each generation has distinct formative experiences and characteristics that affect their work styles and needs. A survey found managing Baby Boomers and understanding different needs as the most difficult challenges. To be effective, managers must build cohesive teams, recognize each generation's diverse requirements, and apply flexible leadership and communication styles. The document recommends HR strategies like cultivating multigenerational teams, expanding work-life programs, and clearly defining success for all generations.
