- Synopsis
- There is a big generation gap between baby boomers and a younger generation defined largely by having grown up on video games--the gamers. According to the authors, this gap is where a number of business behaviors originate. But where did the gap begin, and how did it get so big, so quickly? This chapter provides a short history of the rise of gaming and looks at why it's important for companies and managers to understand how gaming culture has shaped a generation of workers. This chapter is excerpted from "The Kids Are Alright: How the Gamer Generation Is Changing the Workplace."
