With succession plans looming for many companies, Millennials and Gen Xers are opening their minds. Thankfully, many Boomers are more than willing to share and help those younger workers.
In the office, Baby Boomers are more likely to feel knowledgeable (66%), and younger employees view their older coworkers as having valuable knowledge (61%), people they can learn from (48%), and role models (43%).
Express Employment conducted a poll in April that showed 78% of workers between the ages of 57-75 would rather remain only semi-retired than abandoning the workforce entirely.
Express Employment International CEO Bill Stoller said: “Every generation brings value to the workforce, and time is running out to enact knowledge succession plans for these senior employees.”
