Session Highlights Purpose Theory Parameters Learning Outcomes

Purpose The socio-autobiography best practice is a learning activity to promote students’ awareness of their place in social history. This awareness will help equip students to understand social change and how values and world views are shaped by one’s social history. For business majors, this awareness can help in the areas of management and marketing.

Theory Mills (1959) states that an individual must understand the ramifications of being born into and living within a specific social historical period.

Theory When one understands his/her place in social history, one is better able to understand the impact of social forces upon one’s life.

Theory There are many social factors the shape the unique nature of one’s social history. These include – cultural values – economics – social events – political events – technology – demography characteristic.

Theory These factors are not static—rather they are dynamic. However, the state of these factors at the point of early socialization, shape the individual’s perception of the world.

Theory The uniqueness of a specific social history is easier to understand when compared and contrasted between two subjects who are at least two generations apart.

Parameters Review of Handout

Learning Outcomes Identify generational differences that have social/business significance. Analyze how organizational processes, products, and services are affected by the identified generational differences.
