Composition of a company

Post by yhjsaber »

Some people believe that in order to give opportunities to new generation companies should encourage high level employees who are older than 55 to retire. Do you agree or disagree? Give your reasons and personal experience

One of the contributing factors for a company to conduct a thriving business is if it has a balanced workforce which can generate maximum financial benefits. This includes training more capable junior employees while making full use of the expertise of the senior.

The concept stated above implies the key to success for a business is that an employer would need to allocate tasks according to the characteristics of different employees. The success of Apply plays a typical example here. More than 60% of its employees are young adults not older than 40, who are rather sensitive to the fashion trend in digital markets. With such an energetic and innovative team designing products that suit the taste of young customers, Apple’s business has been soaring in past decades. This is largely attributed to the fact that sufficient opportunities are provided to junior workers at Apple, allowing them to fully develop their abilities and exert their potential.

However, without the experienced senior managers who scutinise the feasibility of the product concepts and marketing plans proposed by young talents, Apple would not have achieved so much at an exponentially increasing rate. In fact, such companies often place great value on the perspectives and decisions of aged high level employees, with a view to ensuring the economic growth. Therefore, senior technicians and managers are also an indispensable part of a healthy and thriving business.

In my opinion, ingenious new generations and highly experienced employees possess equal importance when it comes to operating a company. Hence, I would suggest that it is better to have a balanced workforce in an orgnisation where talented young individuals come up with innovative ideas while experienced managers justify the viability of these concepts.
