Each generation shires some broad characteristics that were shaped by influencing factors at work during their formative years. For example, the older generation was influenced by both the legacy of the Great Depression and World War II, causing them to be generally conservative, disciplined, and fiscally restrained. In contrast, both computers and the flit economy of the 1980's influenced the younger generation, causing them to be entrepreneurial and extremely individualistic with an expectation of shorter-term employment (Moran, Harris & Moran, 2007).
Organizational Behavior Importance
The belief that а company’s success is а result of the technical ability of its workforce has many implications.

These are the challenges that most businesses face as crucial times lay head with week economies giving way to job cuts, mergers and acquisitions, and corporate scandal.
