Abstract

This study sought to determine the influence of generational diversity on employee performance in the county government of Nyeri. A descriptive research design was adopted, targeting the 3800 employees of the Nyeri County administration. Data was collected from a sample of 362 employees using a self-administered questionnaire. With the use of SPSS, data analysis techniques included descriptive, correlation and regression analysis. Tables were used to display the results. There was a significant variation in age within the County government of Nyeri. There was a strong positive correlation between generational diversity and employee performance, r(344)=.811 p.001. Regression analysis also revealed that generational diversity is a significant (p.001) predictor of employee performance, accounting for a substantial proportion (65.7%) of the variance in performance and demonstrating a strong positive effect. It was concluded that generational diversity in the county administration of Nyeri has a notable and favourable impact on their performance. There is therefore a need for equal opportunities for career growth and development across all age categories within county government of Nyeri.
