The generational shift of attitudes from the Baby Boomer generation to generation X is identified as consistent and regular.

the different cultural elements from the Western and Eastern cultures Introduction In the past couple of days, my colleagues and I in the assigned group have been working together on preparing a presentation about the different cultural elements from the Western and Eastern cultures in both the business and social environments.
