During the recession - and even now, with economic recovery on the horizon - there has been so much talk about baby boomers (on issues pertaining to knowledge transfer, etc.) and Gen Yers (regarding retention, how to properly manage millennials, etc.).
A colleague of mine recently wrote an article about one group that has been somewhat ignored during this time: Gen Xers - and the value they bring to a corporation. In fact, research apparently predicts that the largest group that will exit the workforce post-recession is Gen X.
Has your company been inadvertantly paying little attention to this demographic? What steps can you take to ensure the engagement and retention of high-performing Gen Xers?
