There are many benefits of a multigenerational workforce. Each generation can have varied strengths and concerns, and differences in styles and expectations can sometimes create tension. Studying the work habits of each generation and proactively anticipating their needs can help companies devise effective human capital management strategies. Note that dates used to define each generation are approximate; some of your employees' experiences may be more reflective of a preceding or succeeding generation.

- Millennials (1981–1996)
- Generation Xers (1965–1980)
- Baby boomers (1946–1964)
- Silent generation/Traditionalists (born between 1928 and 1945)
