Define the term ‘generation’ and summarize the three main generations listed in your textbook. Then design the perfect job in terms of human resource policies for each of them.

What will be an ideal response?


This should be a fun essay to write. The students should first define what is meant by the term ‘generation.’ They should then define and describe each of the generations (Boomers, Y, and X). The students then get to be creative in designing jobs for each of the generations listed in the textbook. Students should demonstrate that they understand the different demands, expectations, and desires across generations, and that intelligent HR policies tailor themselves to these differences rather than use a blanket one-size-fits-all approach.
