Summary/Abstract: One of the most up-to-date approaches to differences between people, especially in terms of their behaviour at work, is the generational analysis according to years of birth. This recently viral approach highlights changes that have taken place over time, changes that need to be considered to better understand the need for a personalised and age-biased approach. At the same time, these changes are also reflected in volunteering, with this article highlighting the differences between Baby Boomers and Generation Z, the generations at the extremes, being the ones who volunteer at the end and at the start of their careers. Thus, behaviours and benefits are discussed, along with the need for continuous adaptation of management style not only in the workplace, but also in the volunteer organisation.
