Boomer Boomer Bosses Play Scrooge At Christmas
Posted November 20, 2007
Baby Boomers are the bosses least likely to throw a holiday party, dole out bonuses or send so much as a fruit basket, according to a newly released survey commissioned by American Express. But Boomers aren’t the only bosses planning a skimpy holiday season, and smaller businesses aren’t the only ones affected. The glitter has gone out of company galas across the board. According to a poll of large companies by executive recruitment firm Battalia Winston International, 85 percent are planning parties, down from 94 percent. Clients as well as staff are likely to be left with an empty stocking. American Express reports that only 59 percent of all business owners surveyed said they would fork over cash for seasonal swag such as fruit baskets, calendars or even cards.
