C.B.M. is a very successful computer company that was started in 1980. The company just acquired a brand new startup technology company called Heal Aspect. They create health applications for mobile phones. The startup company consisted of over 25 employees with ages ranging from 22 to 30 years of age. C.B.M., on the other hand, had an employee age range of 30 to 70 years of age.
How could C.B.M. find a way to merge these two companies and create a new corporate culture? The answer is age diversity, which is the acceptance of all age groups in the workforce. C.B.M.'s upper management put together a task force to identify what trends and solutions were needed to make the merger successful.
