GUEST – Deon Smit is a Master Reward Specialist and SARA Executive Member.
"Cuspers" excel at connecting multiple generations within the workforce. But what exactly is a cusper, and why should organisations pay attention to them? A cusper is someone born at the intersection of two generations, embodying a blend of traits from both.
These individuals act as a generational bridge, often referred to as "generational glue" or a "micro-generation," linking one generation to the next. Understanding the generational makeup of your team is crucial, says Deon Smit, Master Reward Specialist and Executive Committee Member at the South African Reward Association (SARA).
