The Different Conceptualisations of Generations in Literature ()
ABSTRACT
The
presence of employees belonging to many generations in the same workplace has led
to the increasing importance of the concept of generations. This concept has caught
the attention of academics, practitioners, and media and there is an abundance of
literature relating to generations and the differences between generations. While
these literary contributions have made significant contributions to both theory
and practice, there are also a few challenges which have been highlighted by many
scholars. One of the challenges relates to the differences in the conceptualisation
of generations and this article highlights the different conceptualisations of generations
in literature. This article builds on the contributions of previous scholars and
suggests the need for looking at each conceptualisation as an opportunity for further
research.
