Rapid development in China has significantly impacted people's work related values and attitudes through changes in social and cultural values. This cross-generational study will examine the differences between a group of college students and their parent’s generation in terms of their work-related values and attitudes. Implications will be discussed to address HRD initiatives in a time of social and economic transformation.
