What are Generation Gaps? Is corporate America the same now as it was 20 years ago? No. Is what you believed 10 years ago the same as what you believe today? Probably not. Or consider someone who is 20 years old today. Does he or she have different perceptions than someone currently in their 60s? Most likely, yes. These differences in attitudes, values, beliefs and even ways of working together and communicating are referred to as “generation gaps.” Generational differences can lead to misunderstandings and conflict in the workplace.
