What the paper says

Purpose This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies. Design/methodology/approach This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context. Findings Three researchers from universities in Italy and the US conducted a comprehensive literature review to understand how workers’ age influences their adoption of technology at work. They identified five key factors that affect technology adoption differently across age groups: attitudes toward using technology, performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, and facilitating conditions. Originality/value The briefing saves busy executives, strategists and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
