Feedback:
Good topic. I think understanding generational differences within the work space is good. I feel you still need to narrow this down slightly. I am not requiring you to resubmit, just make efforts to narrow as you progress through the development. Good source support. Review APA formatting for the references. The data presented to the President of the company was good. Continue to build on this.
