Generation Y
According to Carolyn A. Martin
(2005), generation Y are born between 1978 1988, Yers are the blunt,
techno-savvy, contradictory children of Baby Boomers who believe education is a
key to success, technology is as transparent as the air, diversity is a given,
and social responsibility is a business imperative.
Generation
Kupperschmidt
(2000) defines a generation as an identifiable group, which shares years of
birth and hence significant life events at critical stages of development. In general,
while researchers differ slightly in the precise years of birth that define the
different generations, most agrees that there are four broad generations of
employees: Veterans (1925-1944), Baby Boomers (1945-1964), Gen X (1965-1981),
and Gen Y (1982-2000) (Hart, 2006; Howe et al., 2000; Yu and Miller, 2003).
