2. Of the seven tasks an HR manager does, which do you think is the most
challenging? Why?
Base on my opinion, I think retention may be the most difficult of the seven
duties an HR manager completes. Increasing employee retention requires
encouraging them to work for the company for as long as possible. Finding
common ground for the management is difficult because employees are naturally
varied and may form a complex workforce.
Those born between 1946 and 1964 are known as baby boomers. Despite the
fact that they were born after the Second World War, they desired equality and
peace, and as a result, they actively participated in protests for reform. This
generation is recognized for having modest incomes and being able to live more
opulently than previous ones. the generation Xers, who were born between 1982
and 1994. This generation is renowned for incorporating technology into their
daily life, as seen by their transition from the analog to the digital world. Also,
between 1995 and 2010 saw the birth of generation Z. With internet usage, they
can be easily detected. First, compared to other generations, baby boomers
prefer to perform their financial transactions with cash, which makes their
banking habits unique. Gen X, on the other hand, prefers personalized
transactions and conducts internet study on money management. As a result,
they show their commitment to a single brand. Millennials have less brand
loyalty. Second, these generations are clearly marked by shaping events. Baby
boomers experienced the aftermath of World War II, Generation X experienced
the end of the Cold War and the emergence of computing, and Generation Y
experienced the internet-driven technical advancement. Finally, gen Y uses
streaming services and mobile devices. Baby boomers use traditional media like
radio and magazines. Gen X has optimized these media to be more digital. Third,
baby boomers have more money and are more concerned with retiring well,
whereas Gen Xers are more concerned with starting kids, paying off debt, and
attempting to secure a stable future. The Millennial generation is looking for work
and has unsteady finances. Fifth, the average age of Gen Y is between 24 and
39 years old, Gen X is between 40 and 55, and Baby Boomers are between 56
and 74.

4. Why is it important to plan your staffing before you start to hire people?
Through training, workers can develop new skills, polish those they already

Organizations should do everything in their power to ensure that people perform
at the highest level because a firm is the culmination of what individuals
accomplish individually. Training is crucial, especially for new hires. This can be
done by a firm employee and should act as a platform to introduce new hires to
