Don t waste their time, or let them feel as though their time is being wasted. Baby Boomers Morris Massey would call this group the Nuagers. This generation represents the children of our World War II veterans. They did not go through economically hard times as their parents did, they had the good life the Traditionalists wanted them to have the best and as a result the Me decade arrived. Boomers value peer competition and can be see by others as being egocentric.
Boomers thrive for possibilities and constant change.
The difference between Traditionalists and Boomers is that Boomers value the hard work because they view it as necessary for moving to the next level of success while Traditionalists work hard because they feel that it is the right thing to do. This generation is committed to climbing the ladder of success. This group embraces a team based approach to business they are eager to get rid of the command and control style of their Traditionalist predecessors. They don t appreciate rules for the sake of having rules and they will challenge the system. This generation will accept people on an equal basis as long as they can perform to their standards.
