employee (or a family member, friend, or colleague) in his or her 20s or 30s.
Conduct a second interview with someone in his or her 50s, 60s, or 70s. Compare
and contrast what motivates workers in different generations (don’t forget to

and suggest a compensation system that might be most motivating for each
generation. (This assignment is roughly based on Exercise 1, p. 505).
