Abstract Abstract (summary) This was a quantitative correlational case study. This investigated the relationship between gender, generation, and overall

satisfaction of 382 United States and Puerto-Rico based pharmaceutical sales

representatives toward recognition programs. Archival data from a performance improvement company was studied. Analyzed to determine correlations from two groups of representatives. A Likert-type electronic survey was distributed and 377 usable responses

were received. Data analysis revealed two themes: employee recognition and employee

alignment with organizational goals. Reinforcement theory and theories of motivation support the literature.

The study found no significant differences in overall satisfaction of pharmaceutical sales representatives by gender and generation, but significant differences existed between the two groups who participated.

Building relationships Recognize the generational differences, but don’t focus on them

Break down the negative stereotypes of each generation

Understand the characteristics of each generation

Communicate according to the preferred method of the recipient

Develop generational teams to work toward a common goal

Lead your organization by demonstrating the importance in building bonds between the generations

Provide feedback that is timely, but may not be immediate

Slide 31

Page 32: Making Connections In a Marketplace with Four Generations Dr. Jacalyn Kerbeck, CRP May 2, 2012.

To Do’s for Successful Connections

Recognize the experience and value to the organization that the Traditionalist brings

Communicate with Boomers in person and give them your full attention Boomers like handwritten notes in addition to phone calls, emails

Design incentive programs to drive motivation by gender and generation

Measure the ROI on each program

Share best practices of engaging generations

Evolve to incorporate team members across the generations to evaluate the effectiveness of present day reward and recognition programs.
