With four generations actively participating in the workforce, there’s a lot employees can learn from each other. Instead, these age gaps may be getting in the way of progress — and productivity.
In organizations where there is more than a 12-year age gap between employees and their managers, employees were 1.5 times more likely to report low productivity, according to recent research published by the London School of Economics and Protiviti. The same employees were also three times more likely to be unsatisfied with their jobs.
