• Product Reviews - Mixing Four Generations - An Excerpt from a Review by Bill Ellet, Training Media Review

    I’m told Mixing Four Generations in the Workplace is a best seller. I can see why.

    This video program does a lot more than provide four or five general points on coping with a generational mix. Cam Marston, the presenter and a consultant on the topic, defines the four generations found in the workplace–Matures, Boomers, Gen X, and Millennials.

    He defines them through essential characteristics that are easy to remember. Marston is careful not to pile on the adjectives; his selectivity helps make the definitions clearer.
